Preservation of flowers is an easy way to protect and display your memories. Flowers are a good way to commemorate the celebration of a new life together with your new partner or even the life os a lost loved one. These occasions hold some of life’s most important moments, make sure you remember them. We all know flowers die, it’s the natural way of life. However, preserving flowers allows them to look as if they hold their life for generations. If you have questions as to how that is possible, look no further because your answers are right here.
What can you preserve?
Preservation is not limited. There is a method of preservation from Suspended in Time that allows all types of flowers and arrangements to be preserved. Whether exotic or domestic, single bloom or full arrangements, all of your flowers can be preserved. In addition, great care will be taken to ensure the end result looks as close to freshly picked as possible. But, preservation doesn’t stop there. Items of memorabilia can be encased, with or without flowers, in a multitude of ways. Some of the most popular items of memorabilia preserved with flowers are photographs, ribbons, and other printed products such as invitations. Preservation of these items has the same result as the preservation of flowers, the memorabilia will outlast the natural deterioration timeline. Preservation is an easy way to protect and display your memories.
What are your options?
There are small, medium, and large encasement options and there are multiple choices in each size. These different sizes ensure that any items of preservation can be accommodated. Larger items, like wedding bouquets, require a large space, while single roses from a casket spray fit into much smaller spaces. Some encasements can be sized in multiple categories.

What product best fits your situation?
Choosing a product will guide what possibilities exist with regard to what can be preserved and included. (These encasements usually include flowers; however, preservation is not limited to flowers only. With preservation, you can have encasements that are floral only, floral with memorabilia, or memorabilia only.)
Small Encasements
Smaller encasements can usually accommodate one or two blooms. Therefore, these encasements are great for someone who only wants part of an arrangement preserved or doesn’t have much space in the home for decorative items. Though compact, these encasements have enough room to include smaller items such as ribbons and a small picture and engraving. They’re perfect for someone who might want to take this reminder with them to work. The size of these end products allows them to be wonderful desk ornaments.
Best Fits for Small Encasements: Blooms from any floral arrangement (wedding bouquet, corsage, casket spray, funeral wreaths or arrangements) along with small items of memorabilia (extra small pictures or ribbons) or greenery.
Medium Encasements
Medium encasements give a little more room allowing for small arrangements or larger items to be preserved and displayed together. Encasements of this size are great for someone who wants a piece of meaningful artwork in their home, but not a full statement piece. The medium size of these finished encasements is great for wall hangings, coffee/end table accents, mantle art, as well as bedroom décor.
Best Fits for Medium Encasements: Multiple blooms from any floral arrangement (wedding bouquet, corsage, casket spray, funeral wreaths or arrangements) along with larger items of memorabilia (small stuffed animals/toys, 1 or more small pictures, cake topper/decorative letters, pins or badges, or full corsages) or greenery.
Large Encasement
Large encasements provide the most room available for preservation. The size of a large encasement allows for full bouquets and numerous other objects to be included. When considering this size, it’s important to think about how you will display it. Large encasements are best for wall hanging and table accents as well as being used as statement pieces.
Best Fits for Large Encasements: Full bouquets can stand alone or be accompanied by memorabilia objects (veils, jewelry, pictures, invitations, programs, stuffed toys, pins/medals/badges, or an assortment of these types of objects).
What will this look like?
Preservation specialists work with their clients to make sure they have a uniquely designed piece of artwork they are excited to display. As a result, all professionally preserved encasements are custom-tailored and unique. You will be able to look at your encasements for years to come and remember special times; however, after preservation, they become a piece of artwork to admire rather than simply an object that helps you remember.
What options are best to gift to someone else?
Trying to find the right gifts in any form can be hard to determine, but trying to take something with sentimental value and know that someone else will enjoy displaying it in their own home is even more complicated. If you know someone really well, have been in their home, and know how they like to decorate, you have a good chance of knowing what encasement would be best for them. However, most times, we cannot know exactly what someone else would like to have under these circumstances. Consider prepaying all or a portion of a friend or loved one’s encasement. Then they can make their own selection and guide the design with the preservation specialist.
