  • Next, we place your design into the mold and carefully pour the resin layer by layer. Each layer must be poured only 1/4" at a time and takes 24 hours to cure. Therefore, this is a very lengthy process. The amount of layers depends on how thick your flowers are or how deep the mold is.

  • Yes. We use top of the line epoxy resin with UV inhibitors. However, all resin will typically amber over time as this is a natural process. To delay any yellowing, keep out of direct sunlight & heat.

  • Fresh, silk, wood, air dried. We can add items into the resin with your flowers as well (photos, charms, ribbon, etc.) Contact us for more info!

  • Olivia Kniery

    “The day after my dad’s funeral, I was trying to think of something special to do with all the flowers from his services. Knowing this was last minute idea of mine, I was worried they would be booked or unable to take my request. Taylor responded to my email that night and quickly fit me in and made three pieces for my family. They are absolutely beautiful and truly a treasure that my mom, sister and I can hold on to”
