” The process of pressing flowers or leaves means you are removing much of their moisture, drying them out as they are flattened in a press. Pressed flowers can be brittle and require a careful hand. If you are not used to working with fine materials, you may want to handle them with tweezers to avoid breakage. Once you start drying your own plants, you’ll quickly see which ones retain their colours and work best. ”
