A wonderful adult craft idea is flower pressing. Gardening is a national passion. With the flowers grown in your garden you can create beautiful works of art that can be used for decoration, given as gifts or even sold for extra income.

Brightly coloured pressed flowers can be arranged with pressed leaves, buds and tendrils to create multi-coloured collages of all sizes and descriptions. You don't have to be extremely artistic either.

Flower pressing is a perfect adult craft idea that can be done in all seasons. Flowers may be more plentiful in spring and summer but the richness of autumn or fall adds depth and colour to your palette.

They're perfect for decorating greeting cards, wedding invitations, thank you notes, book-marks and all types of stationery. They can also be used to decorate a variety of articles about the home, school and office.

Photo albums, telephone directories and picture frames can be personalized with a spray of pressed flowers in one corner. Even school bags, candles and lampshades lend themselves to being decorated with pressed flowers.

You will notice that anyone who receives a pressed flower card will think twice before throwing it away – and this is a powerful reason why pressed flower birthday cards can make such effective promotional gifts for companies.
