Carolyn Austin is the founder of Forever Floral Press, where she transforms flowers into lasting, meaningful keepsakes. For her, pressed botanicals are more than a craft, they offer a way to capture moments in time and preserve the beauty of nature in a simple, enduring form. Through her work, Carolyn shares both the practical techniques and the quiet satisfaction that comes from creating something personal by hand.

As she says, ‘Pressing flowers is storytelling. It’s evoking an emotion, a memory, or a day, or a special person in your life. It’s a reminder, a sentiment, a passage of time.’

In this hands-on workshop, Carolyn will guide you through the process of selecting, pressing and preserving flowers, along with tips for achieving the best results. You’ll then learn how to thoughtfully arrange your pressed botanicals into a modern floating frame to take home.

Suitable for beginners and those with a creative interest, this workshop offers a relaxed, engaging introduction to flower pressing, with a focus on both technique and creating something you’ll enjoy for years to come.

Workshop limited to 15 people per class.
