Reconstructing Flowers
Pressing flowers is a delicate process and sometimes fragile flowers can come apart in the press. Thereβs times when you may also want to deconstruct flowers prior to pressing; to achieve a different effect, to ensure a more even press or just to avoid the likelihood of browning.
Whatever the reason, knowing how to reconstruct a flower is a useful skill to have, and it can be as therapeutic as pressing.
During this short course weβll cover:
β The equipment youβll need, including glues,
β Gluing methods,
β How to reassemble flowers that have come apart in the press,
β How to reconstruct a deconstructed rose.
