I work with a premium, crystal-clear epoxy resin formulated with advanced UV-stabilising technology and free from solvents and VOCs. However, I recommend keeping resin pieces out of direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure to UV rays—much like with many materials—may cause colour changes in the resin and also bleach the flowers. With proper care, your resin pieces can be enjoyed and preserved for many years.
Our turnaround time is typically 6 months. Each piece is poured slowly and precisely, in layers, under controlled conditions to ensure exceptional quality.
Resin is highly sensitive to temperature and humidity. I pour only when conditions are optimal. This careful approach ensures every piece meets the highest standards.
You will receive an initial confirmation once your flowers arrive, and I’ll also do my best to share a photo and tag you in my Instagram stories. About two weeks later, I’ll follow up with an email or message including a picture of your dried flowers. I will get back in contact once I can start on your order. Please don’t worry if you don’t hear from me in-between those times — I'm just busy in the background completing orders.
Please be aware bubbles/ micro bubbles can occur in your pieces, however I will try and keep this to a minimum and it is not classed as a defect. Please remember your pieces are not manufactured and will take on their own charm as they are handmade.
Yes I can work with pre-dried or old dried flowers and even fake flowers.
When drying flowers in silica gel, the resulting colour may vary depending on the flower type and shade. While this process is natural and beyond my control, I use only high-quality silica gel to carefully and promptly remove moisture, ensuring the best possible preservation of your flowers.
Some of the most common results are as follows :-
​
Red roses turn into different shades of deep burgundy.
White flowers can turn into an off white-cream colour or even looked bruised.
Pink flowers can turn into a deep purple.
