I think going for walks and pressing wildflowers is how I'm going to get through Covid-19 without losing my mind.

[@xKomadori]

that’s all i did during quarantine 🌸

[@rehannadsamara7342]

I added resin to the list💕

[@ThisIsJessPaul]

I'm in love with how much she loves her flowers

[@tabithal7071]

I think you just inspired a new hobby. I’ve always loved pretty plants and flower and I used to collect shit like that but always lost them. But then now I’m watching your video! You’re awesome. Thank you for the inspiration :)

[@laurascholz7334]

Love your videos. Be careful the little bit of moisture under the plastic film could cause mold, and ruin all your lovely work.

[@77blazing]

I LOVE YOUR IDEAS. Just today i un loaded a huge book of all type flowers, etc. i grew in my yard as far back as 5 years. I use to make greeting cards with them. So i am learning how to use resin. I am doing the Dirty Pour art. I pour resin to seal them when they are dry, I found you and your amazing Resin pieces, LOVE LOVE LOVE everything i have seen. I ordered alot of product from you, molds, etc. I need to take a loan out at bank if i dont stop ordering.. HaHa.....I am a artist now for 50 years, i do all mediums. I lost interest a year ago when my daughter passed...But you make me laugh, amd makes me want to get back to my art.. Lynn made me laugh, and i was always happy too. Sorry for telling you my life. Thank you for your Beautiful Art. i am sure you make so many people laugh too. ..HAPPY ART. s o

[@mybrokenbum4505]

The flower-filled album is art in and of itself. It's beautiful to flip through!

[@ashes3622]

I'm really excited to start pressing flowers! I even got some resin and molds. If I get good enough at it, I want to make floral resin coasters as favors for my wedding in 2022! I'm so pumped for all of this!

[@aila_ahna]

Omg I had the same idea for my wedding in 2022 also😊

[@ashes3622]

@@aila_ahna ayyyy! Wedding year besties! Whats your date? Mines March 18th!

[@lorifoster3287]

Can I tell you that I absolutely love you and your husband! You both are so adorable!! You are so beautiful and you are a true artist! I hope you can keep filming for at least the rest of my life. I am 58 so who knows how long that is! Thank you so much!

[@NeedAdvice2010]

I personally love how you refer to the flowers as "she". It shows a lot of respect and admiration for them. It's not silly at all

[@ironhorse1096]

I'm an older "Hippi BoHo" grandmother fan! Yes those albums held prescious photos from the 70's. I like seeing the book and album process. There are fleurs hanging in my face everywhere where I walk in Santa Barbara Ca. Can't wait to go for a stroll today! Thank you💝

[@BelleFlower15]

I just went through all of my family's old photos to scan and preserve them and those photo albums are the worst after they've been sitting in a box for decades. 😂 They do make me nostalgic though.

[@DomiDelightable]

I just went and bought one of these types of albums at Michael's today! This is a genius idea for storing pressed flowers (and I've also put some feathers I found over the summer in mine).

[@Nighteyes0001]

Using the album is really super organised, will 100% be doing that

[@annisawardana9752]

Those photo album inspired me!! Gonna find one for my dried flowers soon.

[@RhondaWyma]

WOW ❣ What a Great idea and I do have that kinda photo albums so will try this out thanks a bunch 💐💐💐💙💜💙 Heather I can't wait to try this in the spring when going for walks with my dog & hubby ❣💙💜💙🥰🥰🥰

[@RhondaWyma]

Yea I'm obsessed with flowers too!!!

[@RhondaWyma]

Maybe with other flowers that kinda gets moldy try them with a silica powder see what happens then .

[@user-ef5uu2zm1s]

I’m watching this way late (5 years late apparently!) And I didn’t sort through all the comments to see if anyone told you what the fluffy seed head thing is already, but it looks exactly like the seed head to my miscanthus grass (I have the variety called morning glory). Thanks for the videos! You’re super fun to watch!!

[@liznight]

OMG I grow orchids and love when they come into bloom once a year. With our inspiration, I now can preserve them forever! You are adorable, by the way!!

[@danielletushka8636]

Yes yes yes please make more dried flower videos

[@leighharris6219]

First, I love these. I used to press flowers LONG ago when we had to do a collection of 30 Texas wildflowers in my biology class. As for the football mum. This is just my guess as to why they're called that, but it is most likely why they are referred by that name. Here in Texas, for our high school football homecoming games, the girls wear "mums". Originally, these were just chrysanthemum brooches, but they've since morphed into gargantuan pieces worn around the neck of the girl because they've become too heavy to wear pinned to her clothes. When I was in high school, the flower was replaced by ribbon bows that resembled a chrysanthemum, and then a small teddy bear would be attached to the center. Hanging down from it would be ribbons in the school's colors and other trinkets. The girl's date would wear a matching, smaller one around his arm. "Mums" would only be worn for football homecoming, and then you'd never see them again for the rest of the year. They were always that style of flower

[@MarilynDIAZDESIGNS]

You're so adorable. I love the dried flowers! Ive always wanted to make them, now I know some tips and tricks, thank you! Your resin pieces are absolutely gorgeous!

[@anjaliupasani633]

It's a wonderful album. I liked the page which you like. Enjoyed your album. I am also going to try preservation of beautiful flowers.

[@mookzmom]

Because of you, I have gotten a huge wooden flower press, and system setup for silica gel drying. Next step is to visit the florist. Love ya!

[@taylorgonzalez289]

Love your videos! Your “football mum” is a chrysanthemum beautiful flowers. I like drying my flowers in parchment paper, then pressed in heavy books. It makes them easier to get out.

[@ArtsyMadwoman]

Thank you!! Yessss! I knew it had a different name, thank you! I definitely have to get some parchment paper in the mix ❤️

[@lkv2021]

@@ArtsyMadwoman I've always done that, but if I ever open them, even for a second, the flower deteriorates and starts getting mold right away. Looking forward to seeing how you do it.

[@STARZSHINE614]

or use wax paper

[@robbsaid610]

You actually don't want to use parchment paper, the moisture doesn't really have anywhere to go. Use newspaper! 💜

[@cyhomer]

HEATHER! Guess what...I just found that EXACT photo album at my local goodwill! I couldn’t believe it...same cover..exactly! This summer I’ll be picking lots from my yard and pressing like mad! Love ya! Thanks for the inspiration. 💚

Very Beautiful TY ,they all fabulous, and yes the football mum @#1!

[@89chitra]

This is absolutely beautiful. I am thinking of making small glass bottles with dried flowers. But seeing how you have stored your flowers, I think I am going to try this methods too. Your flower photo book looks so beautiful.

[@lexiibkg16]

Hi, I am super mesmerized by the resin crafts I've seen on IG, & I came across your videos in the searches. I'm now such a big fan of yours & the craft! Super excited to be here & can't wait to keep watching! Thank you for all the tips & tricks!

I wish I had seen this when my bleeding heart was blooming! Will have to wait til next year. Hopefully they will turn out really cool! I am excited to try this! Love watching the whole video! 😍

Hello from Dallas. How cool is that tip of storing your flowers. I’ve got to look into this one! Great idea!

[@annajamieson4969]

You rock girl. So much fun watching you.

[@amywoodrick647]

I love you collecion of flowers. Such beautiful choices. I used to hate roses but you just gave me a new appreciation for them. Love the photo book idea. Brilliant.

[@CailetImagea]

Been watching these and um so glad I found you. My Papa was a gardener and passed this week and I wanted to keep some of his flowers but never done resin. Super scared to screw it up but she so chill I'm feeling more confident in trying this.

[@mariafuentes-mi2dz]

I love watching your videos! I've always dried my flowers just by hanging them in a dark place, now I've started the book ones and I love it just as much!

[@princessresinista9080]

I have some rose petals drying! This is so exciting.

[@celticdesigns]

I LOVE seeing your dried flowers. I did see my grandmother's dried flowers myself because she did this. I don't know what happened to the book, I'll have to ask my dad. They may have been my great grandmother's.... My favorite were the snapdragons, my favorite flower. I also love purple and white Iris', such gorgeous flowers! I definitely want to see more pressed flowers. I also loved your puffball mum (I like your version of it better, lol)

[@marizaboone4180]

They are so Beautiful!!!!!!

[@madebymollyester3236]

I totally need to check out my MIL's garden. She has so many pretty flowers and you just made me wanna try to press some. I have tried drying them in the microwave using silica cat litter and that works kinda good on smaller flowers.

[@thehighpriestess7002]

Who needs ASMR when you can watch flower pressing and reveal videos?

[@belindamason8286]

😱What an crazy awesome idea to store your dried flowers!😍 So the sticky sheet won’t hurt them over time??? The dried flowers turned out amazing too! I can’t wait till mine are dried so I can try out my first project (a birthday gift for my daughter and upcoming Mother’s Day gift).

[@ArtsyMadwoman]

Aww that’s an amazing idea! 🌸💕 The sticky part isn’t super sticky so I don’t think it’ll hurt them. Maybe over time it would but it hasn’t damaged my flowers so far! Let me know how your project comes out! ❤️

If you live in the Atlanta area Passion Plants Grow here They Are a round purple flower with a yellow center and they grow passion fruit that you can pick and eat or make juice with the fruit looks like a green egg hanging on the vine. just remember don't pick all of the flowers or no juice.

Hi You are so lovely and inspiring to watch. I pressed some flowers a few years ago and I store them in a photo album like you. I have found them hard to get off the stick pages so I put paper underneath so they dont stick.

I was bought 6 GIANT the size of my open hand , pink floyd flowers yesterday, from London … the lady said they were from Ecuador so I’ve got them in water and going to press some of them

[@IVirginiaYesIRWierd]

This video was awesome. I'm just curious as to how you get the flowers out of the album without them falling apart? Its a great idea. I just don't want to ruin them trying to get them out lol I am watching as I write this, so if you show that, I just haven't gotten that far yet. Disregard if the video answers.

Great job!! I am obsessed with flowers too! Thank you for your videos, keep em coming!

[@sherelynnrizzo3321]

It's a self-adhesive photo album :) You inspired me to go round look for flowers to start pressing :O :D

[@juliadisorda2323]

I love the reveal of the dried flowers, but I Also like seeing the before of the flower to see what it looked like. Instead of recording every time you press, perhaps you could take a before pic to edit into the reveal video. So happy I found your channel!

[@Nalastasia]

I just love your energy so much ❤️💓

Snap dragons were my FAVORITE flower as a kid. If you pinch the sides of them they open and close like a mouth lol. I played for hours with them...flower child❤

[@DeeKlemann]

You have given me some great ideas. I dry mine in books as well but I stick them between wax or parchment paper. Kisses and well wishes from Toronto ❤❤

[@lexieash5]

U can also put flowers in a book with parchment, close, wrap with a heavy duty rubber band, &.........🤯 microwave the whole book for 1 min increments depending on how big and/or moists the flower is. Pressed dried beautiful flowers done in 1 minute (or more)

[@samanthadrake4388]

[@clarecollins3279]

What do you recommend to hold the flowers in if you don't have a big photo album?

[@Fancyfancynancynancy]

Question: Don't the flowers get stuck on the page? It seems like they would be hard to remove. Really great idea but worried they will get stuck.

[@daliaperez7459]

Bush tentacles 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Love it.

[@leewitte4580]

Number 1- your cuticles look just like mine!! Number 2- I love your enthusiasm!! Number 3- I assume that you have to put the flowers into the books while they are at the peak of their loveliness and not wait until you have enjoyed them fresh before you press them. Is that correct? Number 4- Can you do some wild flowers or flowers from a garden rather than some fancy ones purchased at a flower shop for us? I don't have the budget for fancy flowers, but there are gardens and wildflowers all over I could get some from! Number 5- Are their varieties of flowers that CAN'T be pressed? Number 6- you are my new obsession!! Thank you!!!

[@ArtsyMadwoman]

Okay here I go lol Number one: yeah I try my best with my nails but I work so much with them that they don’t wanna work with me 😂 Number two: thank you so much!! ❤️ Number three: yes! That’s correct! I basically buy them or pick them & our them straight in! Number four: I absolutely can! That’s such a good idea!! Number five: As far as pressing to dry, I’d say the thicker flowers or flowers that have crazy weird centers like peonies I wouldn’t press. They’re too thick & would probably rot in the book. But I have dried big flowers like that in silica gel! So they can be dried, just not in books. Number six: yayyy!! Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️

[@deborahstoudt4740]

Wild flowers are great for pressing, especially Queen Anne’s Lace!

[@dee_x3965]
