a little more on what we do
Here we specialise in pressing and preserving your special occasion flowers and turning them into artworks, so you can keep them for a lifetime. We are Cape Town based and work with flowers from across South Africa.
Alongside Bouquet Preservation, we love creating floral displays and arrangements for your special events with fresh and preserved florals.
For those who would love to learn some skills, take some time to slow down and play with flowers, we host immersive floral workshops where you will learn the art of flower preservation.
bouquet preservation
Creating keepsake artworks from your special occasion flowers so that you can keep them for a lifetime.
We believe in the beauty of traditional wood press preservation, where your flowers are carefully pressed and preserved, petal by petal, before moving onto the design and framing stage to create your artwork.
We offer multiple frame sizes, wood options and layout styles for you to choose from so each piece truly is custom created for you.
Each artwork is hand crafted by our little team, in collaboration with our local framers, to give you a unique piece of art that holds meaning for you, while also supporting local small businesses.
