Our Story
FlatRiver Petal Lab began as a small studio logging humidity curves and paper absorbency to solve a common challenge: how to keep pressed flowers vivid over time. Today, we teach a structured workshop program for creators who value repeatable results.
We empower artists and botanists to press flowers with confidence using clear protocols and gentle iterations that protect color and structure.
