Please message me before purchasing so I can chat about your wedding date, your wishes for your resin piece, location (to determine if you need to ship your blooms or if we will do local pickup) and then I will make you a custom listing! Yay! :)
Preserve your wedding day flowers forever in this beautiful square block resin keepsake.
Please message me before purchasing. You will need to purchase a custom listing for your $50 deposit.
***The deposit is non refundable *** but will go towards your cost of the item. Once your deposit is taken a separate listing will be made for you and final payment will need to be secured before shipping 1 week of your wedding.
COST- $475 square keepsake.
Size: 8x8x2 to 3 inches deep
This piece will display several large blooms + greenery and is large enough to recreate the main aspects of your bouquet.
If you have orchids they may dry to a translucent color because of the texture of the flower. Most flowers when going through a drying process will change in color slightly. This is a normal process. Reds usually go darker red to sometimes deep purple, pinks light or darker and whites typically go to an antique off white color.
Process Time:
Once I receive your flowers I immediately begin the process of preserving your bouquet. Typically the total process is 8-10 weeks. Casting flowers in resin is a very slow process and must be done methodically with great care. There are no fast ways to do this.
Shipping:
It can be costly to ship your bouquet, it can range anywhere from $50-$200 for overnight.
I recommend only shipping overnight this will give your bouquet the best opportunity for the best look within your keepsake. Usually a bridesmaid or mother will handle this part for you while you and your significant other are enjoying your honeymoon. if you're local to the Newark ohio area, we can arrange a time to meet to pick up your blooms!
Packaging your bouquet:
Once you have secured your date and your deposit, I will give you clear directions on how to send your bouquet safely.
If you have any further questions I’m always here to help or chat!
please understand that working with nature can be a bit of a challenge! But we embrace the natural beauty and allow your bouquet to transform into something new and beautiful while still holding onto the sentimental value of your blooms. The drying process can be hard on some flowers, we can lose some petals, they can change color slightly, or become very fragile. I am oh so careful to keep your blooms as happy as i can, but some things are out of my control due to it being a natural piece. small bubbles in the resin are to be expected, as flowers release alot of air as the resin is drying. I keep bubbles to a minimum as much as possible and feel they add character to your finished resin keepsake.
Once your flowers are received, i begin the drying process which can take up to 3 weeks depending on the flower. After the flowers are fully dried, I will begin the design process! Yay! I will send you a few layout options to see what you love best! (layout options are for larger pieces only, not for ring holders or trinket dishes)
Please remember that your flowers are no longer living so they will not look the exact same as their original form.
After you approve of the layout, your blooms will carefully be encased in resin. this takes time and multiple layers. A very tedious process with 24 hours between each layer.
Once removed from the resin mold, you will receive photos from me then it will return home to you!
I use high quality resin that is UV resistant. However all resin is susceptible to yellowing over time. Especially if placed in constant direct sunlight. I highly suggest displaying your piece in a partial to no sunlight location so it stays beautiful and clear for years to come.
