About Small Treasures & Unique Gifts
These small treasures are everyday reminders of your special day. Whether it's a keychain made from your varmala petals or a ring tray from your engagement, I ensure the resin is clear and the flowers are preserved perfectly. It’s about taking those extra petals that didn't fit in the main frame and giving them a new purpose on your coffee table or keys.
Often, we focus on the main wedding frame, but the small details—the petals that fell off during the ceremony, the extra bits of foliage—are just as precious. That is where these small items come in. I create custom keychains, coasters, and ring trays by hand-drying your wedding flowers and setting them in non-yellowing, high-gloss epoxy resin.
The Process Behind the Piece
It takes patience to get this right. Each flower needs to be dried carefully to retain its original hue—a process that takes 15 to 20 days. Once they are ready, I arrange the petals by hand, often adding gold or copper flakes to match your festive theme. Because I handle every step, from drying to the final resin pour, I can ensure the quality of every piece.
Why These Small Treasures Matter
Coasters look great on a coffee table and serve as a subtle conversation starter. Keychains are my favorite because they keep the memory in your pocket, making them perfect as gifts for close friends or family. For engagement ring trays, I use deeper molds to ensure stability and elegance. These aren't just accessories; they are snippets of your story that survive daily wear and tear. If you have a specific shape or idea—like a heart, a hexagon, or even a custom diary cover—send me a message. We can work out the design together.
