🌺 Preserving flowers in silica gel is a careful process that takes over two weeks.

🌿 Ferns make a perfect backdrop for a bouquet of flowers in a resin mold.

💐 There's no need to fill up all the negative space in the mold - the arrangement looks beautiful when viewed from different angles.

⏳ It takes at least 24 hours for each layer of resin to cure.

🔥 When using a torch or heat gun to remove bubbles in the resin, be careful not to scorch the flower petals.

🛠️ If the flowers are piled too high, you can use a Dremel to drill them down after curing.

🔄 After sanding down any imperfections, the final flood pour should be done on a level surface and the sides should also be coated with resin.
