Pressed Flower Cards and Stationary

My Nanny Kids enjoy making cards and stationary with pressed flowers from their backyard and neighborhood.

We use this microwave flower press kit to quickly dry flowers within minutes. With the help of the microwave, we press flowers quickly and efficiently, saving us time with no need to wait for weeks to dry.

The microwave flower press kit comes with 5 felt boards, to press up to 4 layers of flowers at one time. This feature allows us to press more flowers more quickly.

These make great Mother’s Day cards as well.
