Summers' Pressed Flower Collection.

As you may remember in this DIY post that I mentioned I have been pressing flowers and leaves for almost a year now. Obviously there are way more prettier flowers out in Summer but I definitely prefer doing it in the Autumn as everything turns colour and you get some amazing outcomes.

To press the flowers I keep then in a notebook until I get home where I either use a small flower press or use a DIY one using books and kitchen tissue. I leave them for about 3 weeks then i just use some washi tape or my cute kitty foil tape and stick them in a pretty sketchbook for my own personal amusement. 

So today I thought I'd share with you a few pages of some of the flowers I've pressed over the Summer: 


I'm super excited that Autumn is on its way and I can't wait to go out into nature on walks to find some awesome things to press! I've already started venturing out and have had some crazy-cool interactions with bugs and frogs which I will share with you shortly :)

Hope your week is going well - Friday is almost here!
