Pressed Flowers- Flowers that Bring Special Memories

If you ask a lady, which does she prefer, fresh flowers or imitation flowers, the answer would definitely be fresh flowers!

 Even though fresh flowers may not last long, they bring sentimental effects or  closer bond between the person who gives and the person who receives it. It doesn't have to be between couples, husband and wife, gift of flowers between family members or friends normally bring the relationship closer among them. 

Remember each time you see a picture on the wall it  always bring a smile to your face. Each particular detail in the photos will always be the subject of discussion when a gathering takes place. Vivid  memories of what had happened just before or after the photo was taken will accidentally prop up in the group. 

How do you preserve flowers given to you so that it will bring sweet memories of the person who gave them to you? These flowers are also important because each and every time you see it you will also remember the special occasion. One of the way is to press them and arrange them on a piece of paper. Then frame it so that you'll be able to see it every day.

Perhaps the easiest way  to give flowers that last long is arrangements of beautifully pressed flowers in a frame together with your signature beside it. This elegant way of giving flowers may bring along memories of what beautiful moments that you had gone through as years passed by. 

Pressed flowers are  suitable giftsfor all occasions- birthdays, weddings anniversaries, graduation, office tasks to name a few. Most people appreciate them because they are made from fresh flowers and not imitation ones. The most unique feature of pressed flowers arrangements is most of them differs from each other. 

Have a look at my collections of pressed flowers and explore the uniqueness of the arrangements. Remember not one of them is the same.

The Pressed Flowers that I had placed in the car boot

Last year I had intended to mail one of my pressed flowers arrangement to my daughter in the United Sates. Unfortunately, I decided not to because of the high cost of postage.
The pressed flowers arrangement was laminated and placed in a frame. To mail it I had securely padded and wrapped it in a box using tapes and a string.
I had actually forgotten that I had placed it in the boot of my car until my daughter  had graduated recently. It had actually been in the boot  for six months!!
When my daughter opened the package last week, I was relieved that the flowers and the leaves were still as good as new. Even the colourrs have not faded.

I was glad that even though I had parked my car in the open sun, exposed to the high tropical heat my pressed flowers arrangement were still intact and looked fabulous.

 Have a look at the actual pressed flowers in frame that I had left in the car  boot for more than six months .(of course I placed it securely wrapped in a box).

Bunga Tanjung- Its Unique Shapes

Most of the fragrant flowers in Malaysia such as bunga tanjung and bunga melur have white petals which colours don't stay when  they are pressed. They will eventually turn brown when they are dried. However the unique shape of bunga tanjung will definitely be beautiful addition to the colourful yet bland shapes of other flowers. Bunga tanjung when pressed will be too thick to be laminated.  Hence we have to cut some parts in the middle of the flower before gluing to the dried flowers arrangements. Here is a sample of the bunga tanjung arrangements that I did.

Feel free to have a look at my pressed flowers arrangements. Click here

Daun Kari Juga Boleh Dijadikan Pressed Leaves?

Susunan daun kari bersama
daun lain  dan pelbagai bunga .
Tak ramai yang tahu daun kari yang biasanya kita masukkan ke dalam kuah gulai atau kari  juga boleh dijadikan pressed leaves yang menarik. Biasanya yang menarik ialah daun kari muda yang mempunyai tangkai yang bengkok sedikit.

Adakalanya daun ini apabila di tekap lama ia akan berubah menjadi hitam. Kadangkala sekiranya kita mengeluarkannya dari buku yang ditekap beberapa hari selepas itu , ia mempunyai warna 'shading' yang menarik. Daun kari ini agak susah di tekap kerana daunnya mudah tanggal dari tangkai. Ini terutama sekali daun kari tua.

Cubalah tekap daun ini dan susunkan bersama bunga-bunga yang berwarna warni.
Pasti menarik, InsyaAllah.
