Preserving Your Memories in Resin

I transform your cherished flowers and keepsakes into custom resin art, keeping your special moments safe, clear, and beautiful for years to come.

A client asked if I could make their flowers last forever. I preserved them in this set of three stunning wall art pieces, turning their botanical memories into a modern art installation for their home.

The first rose is always special, and it deserves to be cherished. Here, I am carefully preserving these delicate petals in resin, the first step in creating a beautiful, lasting floral keepsake.

Did you know you can keep your varmala forever? This video shows the process of turning delicate wedding flowers into a beautiful, clear resin coaster, sealing a precious memory for a lifetime.

Preserving memories, one petal at a time. This is the intricate process of encasing varmala flowers in resin, layering your story and love into a timeless piece of art that you can display in your home.

In just two sessions, this client created a beautiful floral tray preserving her special flowers. It's amazing to see a memory take shape and become a functional piece of art to be used and loved.

Every artist feels stuck sometimes. While creating this varmala preservation piece, I was reminded that the best way to find flow is to focus on the story behind the art, letting the emotion guide my hands.

There are no rules to creativity, especially when preserving memories. Watch as I pour resin over these carefully arranged dried flowers, creating a unique hexagonal keepsake block that tells a beautiful story.

About this collection

Getting your flowers to me is the first step, but the real work happens in my studio. I use professional-grade silica gel dehydration to pull the moisture out before the resin pour, which is the crucial step that prevents your petals from turning brown or gray over time.

From Wedding Flowers to Timeless Art

When you hand me your wedding varmala or that first rose from a special date, I know you aren't just giving me flowers—you are giving me a story. My goal isn't just to put them in resin; it is to capture the feeling of that moment. Whether it is a hexagonal keepsake block for your shelf or a serving tray you can actually use for coffee, the goal is to make these memories part of your daily life, not something hidden in a closet.

How the Keepsake Process Works

Resin art is a slow, methodical process. I start by carefully dehydrating your flowers over two to three weeks to lock in their natural color. Once they are dry, I arrange them in the mould. This is where I layer the resin, which takes another four to six weeks to fully cure. It requires patience, but it ensures the final piece is durable and crystal clear.

Choosing Your Piece

I offer a few different ways to preserve your blooms:

  • Functional Trays: Perfect for daily use, these turn your varmala into a centerpiece for your coffee table.
  • Keepsake Blocks: Solid, 3D resin blocks (hearts, squares, or hexagons) that look beautiful on a desk or mantle.
  • Initials & Pendants: Smaller, wearable or shelf-friendly options to keep a piece of the memory close at all times.

I also love incorporating other elements—like wedding invitation snippets, charms, or photos—to make the piece truly yours. If you are unsure what format works best, just send me a photo of your flowers, and we can chat about the shape that best fits your space in Bangalore or wherever you are.
