Spring has Sprung in the South of the world, and in my little slice the daffies, crocus, hellebores and camellias are flowering.
So, what better way to preserve these lovelies than suffocating them in silica sand for 7 days and drowning them in resin (to use in my art).

Here’s a camellia that has just started her bath.

Once you have suffocated and drowned your flowers, you are ready to hang them. Here’s a new method I am trialling using black organza ribbon – appropriate for hanging, don’t ya think!
For those who struggle with the trauma associated with suffocating, drowning, or hanging flowers – don’t despair, or feel blue, as inversion therapy can assist.
Note: No flowers were harmed in the making of this post (well, not anymore than if you picked them from the garden and put them in a vase to slowly die from soil starvation).
