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 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.
