The Wellington artist behind the petals
“Pressing flowers is storytelling. It’s evoking an emotion, a memory or a day or of a special person in your life. It’s a reminder, a sentiment, a passage of time.”
– Carolyn, Owner of Forever Floral Press
Forever Floral Press specializes in custom floral artworks
Crafting keepsakes for your home
Your bridal, memorial or special occasion flowers are pressed with love and repurposed into a forever piece of art. I have combined my love of nature with a passion for creativity and botanical design.
Constantly evolving my creations are presented in a number of mediums from paintings to floating frames. A beautiful alternative to fresh flowers and a special keepsake to treasure.
Unique, bespoke and ever so pretty.
Recent commissions
When I press the flowers I love to create unique compositions. If you have a strong preference let me know! Do you enjoy a more traditional composition with the bouquet centred or would you like to play it a tad more adventurous with an abstract scattering of the flowers across the frame? Please bear in mind in most commissions I compose the petals how they best compliment each other using the best of the pressed selection.
