Interview

Maria, can you do a little bit of an introduction for the people who don’t know you yet?

Hello, I’m Maria and I preserve special event blooms into long-lasting keepsakes. I first got into this when I came home with my own gorgeous flowers after getting married and wondered what I could do with them as they were just too beautiful to go to waste. My husband ordered us some resin as he thought he invented the idea and we experimented in the shed – I then realised how special this could be and soon I was hooked! Since then, I have continued to have a huge passion for what I do, learning so much and building a little hobby into a small business. I want to continue preserving cherished memories for many people in years to come!

Yes, it’s a very good answer. What were you thinking about when you preserved your flowers two years later? If time’s back, would you like to dry them in silica gel crystals first？

Yes absolutley.

During the two years of flower preservation, you must try many brands of silica gel crystals. Why do you choose us at the end?

I tried many different drying products but the wisedry falls perfectly into every part of the flower, preserves the colour better than any other product, dries out the flowers very quickly and really easy to re-use!

That’s wonderful! So glad we can help you preserve flowers better. You have mentioned that you want to continue to preserve precious memories for many people in the years to come. Have you tried other jobs before? What’s the difference between flower preservation and the jobs you have done?

I currently work a full time job in the NHS as a clinical research Practitioner which I love but flower Preservation brings me so much joy in different ways and allows me to follow my creative passion.

Maria’s Art

Wow. Both your jobs are very

meaningful! You heal people not only from a biological side but also from a psychological side. I noticed that you have kept a lot of memorial flowers for people. Is there a story behind the flowers that makes a strong impression on you?

For me, preserving memorial flowers allows people to view something from the worst day or their lives to something beautiful they can cherish forever. There isnt a particular story I can think of. For me my wedding flowers were really important so I want others to cherish the memories in their flowers.

I see. Thank you so much. It’s amazing. Thank you again for becoming our brand ambassador. Let’s work together to create more beautiful and precious pieces for people.
