From Petal to Piece
The Process Behind Each Piece
1. Flower Preservation
• The first step in creating a resin piece is carefully preserving the flowers.
• Each flower is preserved to maintain their natural shape and color.
• This step can take 3-6 weeks, depending on the type of flower, ensuring that they are fully dried without losing their delicate beauty.
2. Quality Check and Preparation
• Once the flowers are dried, each one is meticulously checked to ensure they have preserved their color and structural integrity.
• If a flower’s color has faded or changed, a color correction process is applied to restore its original vibrancy.
• Flowers that may have lost petals are repaired by carefully reattaching them and reshaping the structure to ensure they look as beautiful as they did fresh.
• This stage ensures the flowers are in perfect condition to be incorporated into the design.
3. Design and Customization
• The design process begins with conceptualizing a layout that balances structure, creativity, and the client’s preferences.
• Two main design styles are offered:
• Framed (Cornerized) Layout: Flowers are arranged along the borders of the piece, leaving the center open for a minimalist look.
• Bouquet Layout: Flowers are arranged in a central composition, spreading outward like a full bouquet.
• Each design style can be tailored to create either a minimalist look, where less is more, or a full design that maximizes the use of flowers for a bold and complete aesthetic.
• Throughout this process, I collaborate with the client to confirm their desired design and make any adjustments to ensure the final piece reflects their vision.
4. From Design to Production
• Once the design is finalized, the production process begins. This stage transforms the preserved flowers into a timeless resin piece.
• This stage is where the vision comes to life, combining the natural beauty of the flowers with the sleek, glass-like finish of resin.
