Pressed flowers will be flattened and dried in a handcrafted wood press using traditional Japanese techniques. Oshibana: is the art of using pressed flowers and other botanical materials to create an entire picture from these natural elements.

​

Upon receiving your flowers, we rehydrate them if needed, then we begin the meticulous process of disassembling certain flowers to get the best pressing results.

 

We then place all flowers in the press and will check on them daily for the first week changing out damp papers to prevent browning and mold.  Then the flowers will press and dry for 6-8 weeks. After which, we will begin the reconstruction process and color correction if selected at booking.
