Breakdown

A roomy press for garden keepsakes
The Aboofx Flower Press Kit gives garden flowers, leaves, and herb sprigs a broad wooden surface for drying flat. The 15.7 x 11.8 inch plate size is helpful for broad leaves, fern-like stems, calendula, cosmos, pansies, and small flower clusters.
The six-layer design supports several sheets in one pressing session. That can be useful after a cutting day when a few garden pieces deserve a quiet place to dry.
Papers and tools for a tidy setup
The kit includes papers, sponge sheets, drying plates, and small tools. Those pieces help a gardener lay out flowers, adjust petals, and keep each layer separated.
Labeling each layer with the plant name and date keeps the finished pieces easier to revisit. A pencil note on a slip of paper beside the flower works well for simple garden records.
