pressing them keeps the beauty going!!
How to press flowers
How I did it: My mom used to have an enormous rose graden in our backyard and she would always say that she wished she could at least keep the smell forever. So when they first began to wilt we would cut them and press them in her old Stephen King books. I still have the flowers, they still have that pretty scent and they make excellent bookmarks!

When I was a teen I used to press flowers and when they were dry I’d put them in my Spanish, thin-page Bible. I also pressed rose petals, and i’d write on it my initials and the initials of this boy I had a crush on. Nice memories…

...one of my penfriends taped some pressed flowers to her letters. It was so nice to receive those beautiful flowers, that she’d taken the time to press. And so I’d like to press my own, to cheer people up when they see them.

my cousin bought me a flower press, to press and dry flowers in. It was the most exciting thing ever at the time :P
