Practical design techniques, list of flowers that press well, cultivating a pressing garden and a wealth of other information. This book would be useful for a beginner or advanced pressed flower designer; and a treasure for anyone who loves Victoriana. 90 pages hardcover

Well done, Sandy Puckett!,

This review is from: Fragile Beauty: The Victorian Art of Pressed Flowers (Hardcover)
I purchased this book years ago when it came with a little bamboo flower press. I lost it after a few moves and though I had already made several pictures with pressed flowers, I jumped at the chance to buy this book when I found it on Amazon. It was signed by the author and though it didn't come with a press, I knew I could make do with books and a homemeade press. This book is a great inspiration for creating your own designs and gives a lot of good, solid practical advice. It's easy to follow, whimsical, and fun! I know there are other books out there, but this is definitely my favorite!
