Personalizing your Pressed Frame

Personalized gifts are the most meaningful and heartfelt tokens of love one can give and receive. Pressed flower art and floral preservation allows you to create a customized gift with real remnants of nature from life’s special moments.

Whether you choose to press flowers from births, graduations, weddings, anniversaries, or funerals, Pressed Floral allows you to customize unique gifts to commemorate and symbolize memories too soon forgotten.

Choosing your flowers

There are several options you have to customize and design your Pressed Floral frame. The first personalization is choosing the flowers that will be pressed in your frame. From bright blooms with brilliant silhouettes to botanicals with natural greens and neutral toned flowers with soft edges– depending on the season, the theme of a wedding, or the gardens that bloom in your season. While the look, feel, and vibe of live flowers at your event is what matters in the moment, it never hurts to take in account how they will preserve in a Pressed Floral Frame.

Another factor to consider is the fact that not all flowers press the same! For example, while daisy variations and ferns retain their structured shape and color well after pressing, flowers such as peonies, ranunculus and roses actually require more care and expertise to effectively preserve them because of petal thickness and moisture content, so their luxe, 3-dimensional shape that you see when they are alive will not be the same when they are pressed between glass.

Whether you choose your flowers based on personal aesthetics or meaningful stories, we will press any flowers that are in good condition.

Meaningful flowers:

Incorporating meaningful flowers into your Pressed Floral frame can add a significant and personal touch. The storytelling aspect of Pressed Floral is important in creating a frame that is not only beautiful, but meaningful. Examples: When one of our client’s mother passed, our client created a frame of flowers that held her mother’s favorite flowers in her hometown. She also incorporated flowers that are traditional in symbolizing the month of May– the birth month of her mom.

Frames

Size

Depending on how big your bouquet or flower arrangement is, you'll want to choose what size frame they will be displayed in! Our sizes range from a smaller 6x8 boutonniere frame to our larger 18x24 frame. For reference, an average size wedding bouquet usually fits comfortably in our 16x24, and any larger or smaller frames will size up or down. 

a frame to match your home aesthetic

I bet you’d never think to design your bouquet based on the aesthetic of your home or the room it will be displayed in, but with this unique, new, and bespoke art, you have the chance to coordinate your flowers and frame for your home.

Handmade Frame Selection

 For more rustic and farm-house interiors, you might prefer to frame your flowers in something reminiscent of raw natural elements such as our lighter Natural Wood or darker Walnut Brown options. To add to more modern and refined spaces, our Solid White and Sleek Black Frames are a classy option that won't have a problem matching any interior. Our Gold Floral Frame is a perfect accent frame to make any space feel elevated, antique, and ornamental.

Choosing your frame is a great way to personalize your floral frame. Pressed Floral offers custom made frames crafted by a local Utah-based artist, Kheng.

Ensemble FRames

Personal momentos, Invitations, Notes, Vows:

Instead of keeping your vows in the back of a forgotten shoebox, display the words of your loved one in a frame surrounded by the sentimental pressed flowers from your wedding. Looking to create a frame to remember a lost loved one? Handwritten notes included in an array of sentimental memorial flowers is a personal and unique way to keep the memory of your loved one in a bespoke piece of art. A significant momento might look like something that can be pressed in a flush frame such as notes, ribbons, or even butterfly wings!

custom style or size

Looking for further customizations that require in-depth design or size?  Pressed Floral is dedicated to making your frame yours. For additional costs,  custom names, initials, or frame dimensions for longer stems are available. Any specifications will be honored to the best of our ability and within our parameters.

add-ons

Unique Backing Options:

Pressed Floral allows you to choose several backing options to make your piece your own. Our traditional glass on glass look is elegant, unique, and fluid to let your blooms stand alone without being contrasted with any other material. Our linen, paper on linen, and paper on glass options allow your flowers to stand out against a classical solid white background. While Linen covers the entire background, our paper options cover just around your flowers to allow the raw edge of the natural paper to add texture to your piece. .

Pressed Floral Necklaces

 If you want to keep part of your blooms close to your heart, Pressed Floral has the option to design a personalized necklace with the real remnants of your blooms and botanicals pressed within. Add a birth flower charm or ring to symbolize you and your loved ones' birth months.
