Mothers should be celebrated every day of the year but especially on the second Sunday in May. Flowers are a wonderful gift but they last for such a short time. Here are five ways to give your special mom(s) flowers that will last for years.
1. Original Pressed Flower Art
Who wouldn't love an original pressed flower picture with actual flowers from southern Vermont? All original pieces are coated with an acrylic sealer and framed with acid-free mats and conservation glass to be sure the flowers will endure for a long, long time. You may choose to order with or without a frame.
2. Prints
If an original piece is more than what you had in mind, how about a print? Prints are available in two sizes - 8 x 10 ($20.00) and 11 x 14 ($40). All the prints are in double white, acid-free mat and ready for framing. To order a print, go to the card page and select any of the 36 designs. Then email Ellie your choice and the size print you desire.
3. Pressed Flower Cards
Give a package of 6 pressed flower note cards as a gift to your mom so she can write to her special friends on a beautiful card. The cards are prints of original designs made with flowers from southern Vermont. In addition to being great notecards, these flower cards are suitable for framing.
4. Pressed Flower Bookmarks
Is your mom a reader? If you're giving her a book, include a pressed flower bookmark with a quote selected especially for her. If you have your own special quote, I will gladly customize a bookmark at no extra cost. Just email me the quote you would like to have on the bookmark.
5. The Microfleur
The Microfleur, a microwave flower press, is a perfect gift for moms who love flowers and enjoy craft projects. Flowers are pressed, dried and ready to use in
minutes. Think of all the fabulous things your mom can do with pressed flowers: make cards, pictures, trivits or decorate candles. The possibilities are endless.
Take some time to browse around Vermont Pressed Flowers and find just the perfect gift for the moms in your life.
Happy Mother's Day!
