Traditional Method - Drying
Silica Gel Drying
Flower Pressing
One of the simplest and most timeless ways to preserve your blooms is by air-drying them — hanging your flowers upside down in a warm, dark space and letting nature do the work. As they slowly dry, their colours deepen, textures change, and they take on a soft, everlasting beauty that captures a moment in time. ​ This gentle, traditional method works especially well for sturdy, naturally structured stems — and with the right varieties, the results can be breathtaking. ​ Click the button below to download our free guide, where we share the flowers that dry most successfully. ​ Our wedding and event clients receive a more detailed version, with product recommendations and extra tips for the best results.
