Add a little extra
Add a little gold leaf, see how here
A little paper, a few bottles of acrylic paint, pear and leaf stamps made from old computer mouse pads
Apply pressed flowers and pressed vines with hot wax
And, if you didn't press your own flowers, don't worry, I have plenty in my Etsy shop

I love the pressed flowers in your shop Gina! They are amazing, and the colors just perfect. They look so wonderful on the candles.

Dear Theresa, I think that you would like pressing flowers. No special equipment needed. I place flowers within pages of old books, stack the books and add a heavy weight on top.
ReplyDeleteDear Karena, I'm always so happy when you stop by. Of all the projects I get involved in, gold leafing is the easiest to do. Why not give it a try.
