Blooming Keepsakes offers a completely unique, modern and extremely affordable approach to preserving your flowers forever. Each & every orb is hand-made and crafted for each individual client. No two orbs will ever be the same.
All our clients blooms are handled with the utmost care and respect.
WHY TRUST US?
At Blooming Keepsakes we use a mix of different preservation techniques but our difference is an advanced preservation technique called "Freeze Drying" which ensures for the best possible results available on the market today! Unlike most companies that only use one method of flower preservation, research has found that each and every flower preserves differently and so no “one process” is suitable, with a combined preservation process our clients are guaranteed the best possible results. Not only are your blooms Freeze Dried, they are also carefully treated against long term UV fading and discolouring.
The Importance of
UV PROTECTION
We have had many upset brides contact us in the past asking if we can “Fix” their flowers that have been previously preserved and encapsulated in resin by others, as they are now browning, yellowing, or loosing their colours!!
The importance of choosing the right professional when thinking about having your flowers preserved is not something you should take lightly. This is something that is not talked about near enough or at all and with Resin Flower Preservation becoming one of the fasted growing industries, it is so important to understand and educate yourself on how to choose the right professional preservation company for you.
Unfortunately, epoxy resin is known to amber over a period of time, just like all art, it will age, it could be 6 months, it could be 1 year, but the fact is, it is highly likely to change colour sooner rather than later, if extra steps are not taken to prevent this in the preservation process. Sadly, along with this, you may also notice flowers will start to change and lose their bright, beautiful colours if they are not properly treated and protected at the start. Once this happens, unfortunately nothing can be done to fix or correct it, that is why it is so incredibly important to educate yourself, choose a professional and discuss with your chosen preservation artist the longevity and extra steps that are taken to ensure your flowers are protected long term.
