The process for preserving your memorial flowers is typically 10-14 weeks from the moment they are received by us at our studio. Your delicate flowers are handled very carefully as they progress through our freeze-dry flower preservation process in order to become your special keepsake.

What will the longevity be for my preserved floral keepsake?

Your preserved flower keepsake can be expected to beautifully last for years down the road. Special care instructions are also included when you receive your preserved flower petal jewelry or display so that you can help ensure its longevity. Best general practices include keeping your flowers away from harmful , direct sunlight or excessively humid environments. If your keepsake is encased behind UV protected glass, it is best to keep them there. This will help ensure that they are safe from dust, mold and other factors that can cause the breakdown of your flowers.

After you send in your information to us either by phone through our online customer information form, we will be in contact with you to discuss what kind of keepsake you would like to create. Because no two pieces are alike, we don’t have a fixed price list. Rather, we recommend you browse our gallery of shadow boxes, flower petal jewelry and other preserved floral treasures if you’d like to get an initial idea of what your piece may cost. After you’ve connected with us and we know what you’d like to create, we will be able to give you an exact cost for your keepsake.

What determines the cost to preserve your flowers into a keepsake?

It is the type of display or jewelry piece that determines what your final cost will be. To get an idea, some or our gallery items display a price for you to get a general idea.

Professionally preserving flowers is our key passion here at Fantastic Blooms!

Have your own unique idea for preserving your flowers not seen on our site? Contact us to see if it’s possible!

Just how much will my preserved flowers appear like they did when they were fresh?

If you chose to have your preserved flowers encased, they will retain their original shape. Colors may deepen in the preservation process, but they will appear realistic. The variety and color of your flowers also plays a role in slight color changes. White flowers, for instance, can often adopt an ivory or cream-like tone, while purples and reds can darken in the preserved state. If you chose to have your flowers created into preserved flower petal jewelry, then shape is not a factor, but the color will be similar to that of an encased keepsake.
