This flower press has been made from thin sheets of MDF layered up. Holes have been screwed in the corner of each sheet and large nuts and bolts have been fitted to adjust the pressure. My partner made this for our daughter, he also etched the design in to the top to personalise it. It works really well and because it's pretty large our daughter was able to press large flowers such as poppies and roses. See her first efforts below, they look lovely. I also really like the indentations the flowers leave behind. They remind me of miniature botanical watercolours.
