Wedding Bouquet Paperweight / Real Flower Paperweight

We create stunning paperweights made with real flowers trapped in resin. These paperweights can be used to capture and preserve memories from special occasions; maybe your received flowers from a special person in your life? Or you may just fancy a beautiful item in your home; whatever the reason - we have you covered.

Our paperweights are made with real flowers and are handmade with love. We offer a range of colours, so please state your colour preference or flower preference when booking. Order yours today!


PLEASE NOTE:

  • Flowers may change colour during the drying process - this can depend on many factors, such as how mature the flowers are, if they've been sprayed with any chemicals and the state in which we receive them. 
  • As these items are handmade they will not look like they have been manufactured by machine and occasionally small imperfections such as small bubbles in the resin may occur - but this usually adds to the handmade charm.
  • Flowers must be thoroughly dried before preservation or the flowers could spoil, so completion time may vary between 8-12 weeks
  • Whilst we can accept whole bouquets, unfortunately due to space we can’t dry, keep and send back any remaining flowers.
  • Please keep your letter pieces away from sunlight and chemicals (perfume, polishes, cleaning sprays, soaps etc). The items can be wiped over with a slightly damp cloth if needed. The items can scratch so keep it away from rough/sharp surfaces.

----------------

The following guidelines show how to easily post us your flowers:


Step 1: Cut the bottom of the bouquet to allow the flowers to collect some moisture during the travel. For any ribboning which may be wrapped around the base, if you could remove this and include (we could add this into the resin also if you'd like) 

 

Step 2: Collect some kitchen tissue paper, at least a handful of sheets and dampen this to allow for the flowers to collect some water during travelling. Wrap this around the base of the flowers.


 

Step 3: Wrap kitchen foil tightly around the base of the flowers, to ensure no water escapes and travels through to the bud. 


 

Step 4: Place the base of the flowers in a sandwich bag, close the bag as much as possible.

 

  

Step 5: Pop some Kitchen Tissue around the top of the flowers to protect them and ensure of any water escapes the tissue will collect it. Please don't make this too wet, just damp is totally okay for the journey.

 

Step 6: Add the flowers, ideally upright, but if you can’t do this, don’t panic - in a box with bubble wrap/ cushioning into a strong box. Enough padding so the flowers don’t move around during transit.

 

Step 7: Please place “Fragile” on the outer box and post! Add a note in the box including your Order Number & Name so we know the flowers are yours on arrival :)

We only use a high quality grade 100% guaranteed non yellowing resin which will ensure your items won’t fade to a yellow over time. This patented technology is one of the reasons we have decided to work with this manufacturer against all others on the market so we can ensure that we can offer the best to our customers.
We'd suggest to wait a 8-10 weeks to have this delivered back to you. As it takes sometime to dry the flowers and we carefully take apart the bouquet to do this. We always keep all our flowers separate from each client. We will however keep you updated throughout the process and you are more than welcome to contact us on hello@magentaflowers.co.uk if you'd like an update.

A Beautiful Keepsake - and Fantastic Customer Service!

I ordered the paperweight on a whim after having my wedding bouquet recreated for my 10th Wedding anniversary. Both the original bouquet and the recreation were absolutely beautiful. I wanted some of the flowers from the 10th Wedding Anniversary bouquet preserved. I contacted Safiyya after searching for flower preservation through Google as the company my sister-in-law recommended was out of my price range. I am so pleased to say that Safiyya has done an awesome job with the paperweight and also with the flowers in it. There was a problem with the orchid as it faded in the drying process but Safiyya kept me updated every step of the way and asked whether I would be ok for her to airbrush it to enhance the colour. I was very happy for Safiyya to experiment on the orchid as the orchid was central to my bouquet. It's turned out brilliantly and I am very happy with it. It's pictured here alongside my wedding photos and I am so happy with it. Safiyya is absolutely lovely and provides amazing customer service, making sure that I was satisfied with the product, the process and consulting when there was an issue with the orchid. I was a bit nervous about having this done as I had no preconceptions as to what the finished product would look like but I am really happy with the end result. I would use the company again if I wanted any more flowers preserved. Thank you Safiyya - you've made someone very happy with a very pretty product xx

Such a special gift

We ordered a paperweight for our daughter-in-law's 30th birthday yesterday. They got married in September and to say she was thrilled is an understatement. She wouldn't put it down and just kept turning it in her hands and looking at it.

All the correspondence we have had with Safiyya has been so good. When she sent the final photo she said it could take 3 weeks to get to us. Being on the Isle of Skye we know it can take longer than normal. I pointed out it was for a special birthday and she finished it off straight away and sent it in plenty of time.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend gifts from Magenta Flowers - thank you so much Safiyya.

Wedding keepsakes

I had these done as gifts for the mums after our wedding. I was nervous sending bits of my bouquet off but knew that it would be worth it. The finished product is lovely and super pleased that bits of my bouquet ribbon and parts of my hair slide could be included. A truly special memento. Thanks so much. X

Beautiful Keepsake

Ordered a paperweight as a memento from a recent funeral and the finished item is beautiful. It really captures the flowers from the day and it is lovely to have on display. I was updated at every stage of the process and the packaging was lovely and well presented too. Thank you very much!
