HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO PRESERVE FLOWERS?
Good things take time. The flower preserving process alone can take up to 21 days. We then cast and pour the resin in stages, allowing it to fully cure before they’re ready for pick up.
Turnaround time currently is between 8-12 weeks, but we promise It’s always worth the wait.

WILL PRESERVING FLOWERS CHANGE THEIR COLORS?
The process of drying and preserving flowers can slightly alter the colour, depending on the flower and original colour. This is completely normal.
We use a high quality gel to preserve your flowers to retain the shape and vibrancy.
Common changes can include red roses deepening to burgundy and white flowers changing to an off-white or cream colour. The change depends on how fresh they were when they were first picked, so is completely out of our control. For white flowers, we pour using a different technique to minimise colour change as much as possible
Bruising on petals can also show as translucent spots once they’re in resin. This is generally a result of how they were handled when they were picked, and the age of the flowers. This doesn’t take away from the beauty of the flowers, and just demonstrates their delicate nature.

CAN I USE OLD OR PRE-DRIED FLOWERS?
If you have flowers that are already dried they can still be preserved. If they’ve been professionally dried and correctly cared for, they will be able to be preserved in resin. If you’ve had them for a long time, or you’ve dried them yourself, we’ll need to check them for mould growth prior to preserving them in resin. Please note that if this is the case, the end result will have a rustic look as we cannot bring the colour and shape back.
If you’d like to check whether your flowers are suitable, simply pop some photos through whatsapp.

HOW TO CARE FOR THE RESIN PIECES?
Keep your resin keepsakes out of direct sunlight to maintain their colour and avoid UV damage.
Otherwise, they’re low maintenance, just needing a quick dust every now and then with a microfibre cloth. Please don’t use any harsh chemicals on your pieces, as this can damage the finish. If you’ve got some stubborn dust or marks, using a microfibre cloth and clean water should be all you need.
