Bespoke Artwork FAQs

How long does it take?

Flower pressing isn't a process that can be rushed, it can take up to 16 weeks to perfectly preserve them.

Are there flowers that aren't suitable for pressing?

Lots of flowers press beautifully, and we're always happy to talk through what might work for your bouquet.


For the best results, we suggest a bouquet with a good mix of flower types and foliage, rather than just one kind or colour.

How to hang my flowers to last a long time?

Like anything natural, pressed flowers change over time. Bright blooms may fade to softer shades, while whites and pale flowers take on warmer tones, from soft ivory to light honey. Every flower ages differently. We sometimes use dyes to help preserve colours over time, so your artwork ages gently and gracefully.

If I order more than one piece, will my order be shipped together, or individually

We will ship each piece individually, to make sure each piece arrives in the best possible condition. This means that each piece will incur a separate shipping charge.

Will your recreate my arrangement exactly?

Rather than recreating your bouquet exactly, we capture what makes it special. Every piece is our own artistic interpretation, shaped by your flowers and their story.

Can I choose my own frame?

All of our Artwork is delivered framed using Danish handmade frames, in a choice of three finishes.

How do I get the flowers to you?

There are four ways to get your flowers to us.

1) Collection. If you are within a 20-mile radius of our Congleton studio, we are happy to collect from any home or venue. Just let us know the address and we will arrange a time. £20 (Tom – to add charge to Checkout).

2) Drop-off. You are welcome to bring the flowers to our studio. Get in touch and we will agree a suitable time. Free of charge.

3) Postal (standard). If you place your order at least one week before your occasion, we will post you a box with everything needed to keep the flowers in the best possible condition. Pack them up and send them back to us, ideally, the day after your occasion. £20.

How do I make sure the flowers get to you in the best possible condition?

Timing matters most. Send the flowers to us as soon as you can after your occasion, ideally the next day and no later than two days after. The fresher they are when they reach us, the better the final result.

A few simple things help in the meantime:

- Keep the flowers cool and out of direct sunlight.
- Trim the stems and stand them in water until you are ready to pack them.
- Pack them gently so the blooms aren't crushed, following the instructions provided with your box.
