Preserve Flowers from Any Special Occasion
Not every meaningful flower comes from a bouquet. We preserve flowers from memorial services, anniversaries, graduations, baby showers, gardens, and other special moments so they can be enjoyed for years to come.
Your reservation is confirmed once availability is approved and the required payment is received.
Based in North Carolina, Forever in Bloom welcomes flower drop-offs by appointment in Cary, North Carolina.

Preservation Options
Flower Drying Service
Have flowers you’d like to keep but aren’t ready to turn into artwork? We can carefully dry and preserve your flowers for display, crafting, shadow boxes, scrapbooks, or future projects.
Pressed Flower Frames
Transform your flowers into custom framed artwork.
Shadow Box Frames
Preserve your flowers in a dimensional display that showcases the natural shape and texture of each bloom.
How It Works
- Submit an Inquiry. Tell us about your flowers and what you’d like to preserve.
- Confirm Your Project. We’ll discuss availability, pricing, and whether flower drying, a pressed frame, or a shadow box best suits your flowers.
- Secure Your Reservation. Once availability is confirmed, custom frames and shadow boxes require a $100 booking deposit, applied toward your final total. Flower drying-only orders require full payment of the quoted price before preservation begins.
- Drop Off Your Flowers. We’ll arrange a drop-off by appointment. Include any agreed-upon personal keepsakes with your flowers.
- Preservation Begins. Your flowers are carefully dried or pressed. If you’ve chosen a frame or shadow box, we’ll create your custom arrangement.
- Receive Your Keepsake. Once your flowers or finished piece are ready, pay any remaining balance and arrange pickup.
Final Design Selections
For framed pieces, please confirm your preservation style, frame size, frame color, and backing preference, if applicable, by the time your flowers are dropped off. Any agreed-upon personal keepsakes must arrive with your flowers.
Typical turnaround is approximately 6–8 weeks after your flowers, personal keepsakes, and final design selections are received.
Flower drop-off and finished-piece pickup are available by appointment in Cary, NC. Shipping is not available.
A Note on Each Piece
Flowers may naturally change in color as they are pressed or dried. When needed, I gently apply artist pastels to enhance faded areas and bring the flowers closer to their original coloring. Natural variations and gradual color changes may still occur over time. Display your keepsake away from direct sunlight to help maintain its appearance. Each design highlights the best elements of your flowers while preserving their overall feel.
Reserve Your Spot
Start by submitting an inquiry so we can discuss your flowers, preservation options, and availability.
Custom frames and shadow boxes require a $100 booking deposit, applied toward your final total, with the remaining balance due when your piece is complete. Flower drying-only orders require full payment of the quoted price before preservation begins.
Submitting an inquiry does not reserve your spot. Because every project is preserved by hand, availability is limited.
