Botanical Plant and Flower Press
A
Versatile
Microwave, Air-Dry Press.... A good sturdy
plant and flower press for traditional flower pressing techniques.
This flower press is

in the micro-wave
and/or pressed dry. You'll find that you can press much thicker flowers
than ever before. The breathable inner layers of the flower press encourage pressed
flowers to dry quicker and look better.

We recycle
- We strongly believe in being environmentally responsible. You may
receive your flower press in a reused cardboard box with recycled
packing peanuts. Friends and family are happy to have us recycle these
items for them and it keeps costs down for us, and for you too, while
keeping the extra trash from the landfills.
This benefits all of us including our children and grandchildren. If
you'd prefer a brand new box for shipping, make a note on your order
and your press will be shipped in a new box with no extra charge. We have
new boxes; this is our environmental preference.
Shipping
is
higher outside of the USA, an invoice will be sent when the
press ships.

sizes can be built to your specifications. Discount available with a purchase
