the floral process

It all begins with getting your florals from you as soon as possible after your event. ​(Houston area drop off orders only.)


I'll then trim the flowers and place them in silica to dry for approximately 4-6 weeks. In the ​meantime, you can start considering which piece(s) you are interested in ordering. (If ​desiring a low profile piece, that must be discussed before drying begins as not all flowers ​will work in these designs.) Once dry, I'll send you pictures of the flowers to aid in your ​choices.


After deciding upon the piece(s), I'll put together a sample layout for you. Once any ​changes you desire have been made and the design is approved, a 50% deposit will be ​required before proceeding.


From that point, your order may take 1-2 weeks to complete depending on the size, ​number of pieces and details involved as well as my work load at that time. (Kindly ​remember that I do teach full time so my turn around time can be a bit slow.)

things to know

Preservation pieces make wonderful gifts to share memories of life's events with those ​you love!


Some flowers change color during the drying process. Most white flowers will become ​off white/cream. Reds will darken to more of a burgundy color. Pinks can lighten ​and/or change hue. Yellows can fade over time after being cast in resin.

Flowers are handled by many people during which internal bruising does occur. This ​bruising can become apparent as transparent patches when flowers are cast in resin.

While full size blooms are beautiful, having smaller flowers and greenery allows for ​more options and added details. All resin will eventually yellow to some degree over ​time. The pieces should be kept out of direct sunlight and away from a direct heat ​source/vent.


ASHES can be preserved in resin as well!

(ornaments, keychains, framed pieces, etc.)

about me

Hi there! I'm Diane ~ a wife, mom, corgi mum, fulltime teacher

and Houston based resin hobbyist in the Clear Lake area.


I began working with floral preservation in 2022 and am now totally and utterly ​obsessed! There are SO many facets to this process, but I love learning and growing in ​my abilities. To continue this journey, I offer preservation options commensurate with my ​level of experience. This allows me the opportunity to further develop my craft at a ​modest cost to those interested.


I find such joy in creating floral keepsakes of life's events (engagements, weddings, ​memorials, funerals, births, graduations, etc)! I'm so very honored to help preserve ​these special memories for others!
