Professional Flower Press Kit 6 Layers 6.3 x 8.3 inch , Flower Pressing Kit for Adults Kids, Great Gift for Daughter

Muy bonita y a la primera funciona pero la placa no se seca nunca, absorbe la humedad del ambiente

I've been pressing flowers for a week now and really enjoying this kit. I liked that the absorbing boards are reusable; they must be stored in a sealed bag or container because they absorb moisture from the air as well. It's very simple to assemble referring to the included diagram. I slightly damaged the edge of the wooden plates because I thought I needed extreme pressure my first go around. In actuality, basic securing pressure is enough. Already have 27 blooms pressed including pansies, violas, primrose, serenity African daisies, a ranunculus, begonias, a dandelion, and daffodils. Now to figure out how to store them in a useful way.

I was so excited to get this but when I opened it and saw the instrutions. I am diabetic and older. I cannot see the instructions even with a magnifying sheet. Really disappointed.

I’ve been pressing flowers for the past 3 years using first books/paper & then a rudimentary homemade press. I recently moved & am without a press at the moment, but while visiting my mom I wanted to preserve some of the flowers from her beautiful garden so I ordered this as it had good reviews & wasn’t super expensive. I am so impressed that I literally bought a second one a week later. The use of this press with drying plates & sponges (which I had never used before) left me with the best results I’ve ever gotten pressing flowers. The flowers dry quickly & retain their color very well. I tried one zinnia that was very thick & bulbous just to see & was so pleasantly surprised with how it turned out that I bought the second press just to fill with more zinnias! It is small but it can hold a surprising amount of flowers & when the straps are on tight, it’s pretty small & compact. I almost never write reviews but I really honestly think this is a great product & would 100% recommend it either to someone looking to begin pressing flowers or to someone who wants to upgrade from their current press.Edit: one year since my original review & I’m back to say I still love & use this product on a regular basis & have, unsurprisingly, purchased a third. I don’t think there’s been a single time over the past year that at least one press wasn’t in use & I’ve literally started a business selling pressed flower art (@ pressitrealgood on the gram if you’re interested)!

The media could not be loaded. The kit was very easy to use with directions that made sense! I love the diagram of the placement. This was my first time pressing flowers that ended up so vibrant. I did, however leave the flowers pressed longer than it was calling for for my own peace of mind. The straps were very sturdy and it was nice it came with three. Now I want to get a bigger one!

Opened it up just now to press some spring flowers and there are no straps inside. Update: straps were included. My mistake. They fell out and were misplaced. Anyway now that I’ve used the product I can say it’s very well made and impressed with the quality. the straps are very tight and the flower dries out quickly and is pressed perfectly. This product will give years of enjoyment.

I love this thing and I haven't even seen the results yet! It is much easier than using a book. I was able to put big flowers in it and was shocked how many I could press. I also like how compact it is and how tight I was able to pull it together. There is no need to put weights or other books on it. I am seriously considering buying 1-2 more.

This does exactly what it describes. Just messing around I did a flower I grew in my garden. I used the materials it came with and it turned out perfect. Next time I will do no white paper. Great gift for flower lovers!
