Our pressed flower adventure started with flowers grown in our backyard urban garden in Denver, CO.  In Spring 2020, we started pressing poppies and other wildflowers from seeds we scattered in our yard and Keith learned how to make frames from scrap wood. 

In late 2021, we threw together a website for our newly imagined business, plunging ourselves into the world of bridal bouquet preservation, wholly unprepared as to what our first year in business would bring.  Our first year was full of many ups and downs, but ultimately our attention to detail and creativity helped us to organically morph into a business that brings both of us a lot of joy with just the right amount of challenges.

Flower Press Studio allows us to get outside in the garden, and get more involved with a local community of makers, florists, and flower farmers to express our authenticity using organic materials grown from our mother earth.

Each year, we collaborate with beautiful, independently owned flower farms that serve their local communities.  We preserve their seasonal blooms in the form of pressed flower art.  We now reside in the agriculturally rich North Fork Valley in Paonia, CO with our cat, Ivy.  When we aren’t pressing flowers, we are working on our land, fixing up our log cabin, and trying to enjoy everything these Colorado mountains have to offer.  

Keith and Rachel of Flower Press Studio have done or have collaborations in the works with Hatchett Book Group, Evan Healy, Estée Lauder, The Herbal Academy, Area Environments Wallpaper, Puzzle Michele Wilson, and Cobble Hill Puzzle Company.
