Two beautiful mini flower presses off to their new homes today!! Ambrosia Maple and African Padouk (The red one!)

What's cool is that these are not stained...it's the natural wood grain and color enhanced with our favorite finishing oil derived from natural sources and made right here in the Midwest. πŸ˜ƒ

Which one's your favorite?

The odds of this are crazy!! (One 4 leaf is actually missing from the picture) we found them all in one little search in the yard. My mind is blown!

Also, excuse my stained hands...it's Tumeric from a craft I did earlier. πŸ˜…

Mornings are more magical with coffee in your favorite mug and a mini flower hunt in the yard. 😍

Excited to see how these little finds will look coming out of my mini flower press.πŸ’šπŸŒΌ

Love watching the little pollinators enjoy the new things that are always popping up in our yard.🐝🌼

Dandelions, Sheep Sorrel, Wood Violets, Thyme-leaf Speedwell and the Daisies are on the way.

What are your favorite little flowers or "weeds" that grow in your yard?

Testing out a new method for finishing our mini flower presses!

We usually rub the finish on each individual piece by hand but our hands needed a little relief and it's kind of satisfying to see all of the pieces get coated in finish at once.πŸ˜…

Over time, we have definitely gained an appreciation for wooden goods...especially handmade wooden goods!πŸ˜‰

We wanted to share a quick and easy way that we preserve our wooden treasures at home and keep them looking fresh!

What you will need:

Beeswax
Food grade mineral oil
A cloth or paper towel
microwave safe glass container
Something to stir with
A container to store your finished butter

We use a large wax melting crock..but you can use a crockpot, microwave safe glass, or whatever method you would like to melt your beeswax. (Depends on what you have and how much you plan to make!)

Thoroughly mix the food grade mineral oil into the bees wax, pour into a heat resistant container and let cool/solidify.

Once the mixture becomes solid, take your freshly washed and dried cutting board and apply with your hand or a cloth. Let sit for 10-20 minutes and wipe off! Voila! Protected and fresh looking wooden treasures that will last for years to come! ✨

It was supposed to rain today...but, instead we have sunshine, blue skies annnnnnd the Apple tree is in blossom...I'll take it! 🌞

Of course, I picked just a few to press...but wanted to leave most of then for the bees to enjoy.🐝🌸

Hope everyone has a beautiful Friday!
