I've always been a creative person. If I see something cool, my first thought is usually, "I can make that." Sometimes that's a great idea... and sometimes it means buying a lot of supplies and learning things the hard way.

When I got married, I had my heart set on preserving my wedding bouquet. The only problem? I waited until the last minute. By the time I started looking, everybody was booked and the thought of shipping my wedding bouquet was daunting. So I did what any creative person would do. I bought the tools, gathered the supplies, and learned how to preserve it myself. Let's just say I didn't save any money, but I also didn't save any time.

What started as one project quickly turned into a hobby. I experimented, made mistakes, tried again, and slowly learned the art of pressing and preserving flowers in a way that honored their beauty and the memories they held.

Around the same time, I had decided it was the right moment to close one chapter and step away from my teaching career. As I was figuring out what came next, friends began reaching out with the same last-minute hope for their flowers that I once had. The rest is history.

Every piece is arranged by hand, and every flower is treated with the understanding that it represents more than a bouquet — it's a memory, a milestone, and a story worth keeping.

Thank you for trusting me to preserve yours.
