Use any flowers from your garden or balcony or window box, and make them into a pretty little display that you could either frame or turn into a hand-crafted note card for someone.
1. Select the flowers you wish to press and make sure they are dry and free of soil
2. Place your flowers in an arrangement that you like onto a sheet of blotting paper or poster paper
3. Cover over with another piece of blotting paper or poster paper and then place between two flat, heavy objects such as two large hardback books
4. Move your press to a dry, warm place such as an airing cupboard or above a radiator
5. Check your press every 12-24 hours until you are happy that it is dried out
6. Mount your press in a frame or fix to a card with PVA which will dry colourless
