How far in advance should I make my reservation?
We have limited space for preparations each week. This may cause us to be fully booked in certain weeks because our maximum capacity has been reached. To be sure of your spot, we advise you to book early.

 

Where can I have my flowers delivered?
This is possible in Sleen, Zwolle, Tiel, Leiden and Someren. View all information about these drop-off points here .

What does the process look like and how long does it take?
Once we have received the flowers, we prepare and dry them so that the moisture is extracted. This drying process takes an average of four weeks. Once the flowers have completely dried out, we start working on the design. A design is sent in advance for all items from the size 15x15 cm. We only start pouring after you have approved the design. This does not apply to small items such as hearts and tea lights. This is because these are small dimensions, which is why we mainly look at the technical aspect: which flower fits where nicely in terms of size and composition.

Each layer of resin hardens in a few days. This is a long lasting process, as multiple layers of resin go into a design. Once the last layer has fully hardened, we remove the pieces from the mold and sand, polish and finish. The duration of the entire process varies, but expect 14-18 weeks.

 

Where can I view sample pieces?
This is only possible in our studio in Sleen, please make an appointment with us.

​

Can I also deliver flowers in Sleen if you are not there?

Yes, there is a large box at the front door where the flowers can be safely left 24/7. When you make a reservation, you will receive more information about this box from us.
