Preserved Moments: The Keepsake Journal by Alma Makes

What Is Resin Flower Preservation & Why It’s So Special

Flowers don’t last forever — but the memories they hold can.

At Alma Makes, we take the blooms that mean the most to you and turn them into beautiful, long-lasting resin keepsakes. Whether it’s your wedding bouquet, funeral tribute, or even flowers from a special moment with a loved one or pet, resin flower preservation gives those memories a home you can hold onto.

But… what is resin flower preservation? And why do so many people fall in love with it?

Let’s break it down.

💎 What Is Resin Flower Preservation?

Resin flower preservation is the process of embedding real flowers in crystal-clear epoxy resin to preserve them permanently. This creates a durable, glass-like piece that showcases the shape, colour, and natural beauty of your flowers.

At Alma Makes, each piece is:

  • Handmade in our Surrey studio 🖐️
  • Crafted using high-quality resin that’s built to last
  • Fully custom, tailored to your bouquet, colours, and story


From wedding bouquet blocks to pet memorial ring holders, every flower is arranged with love and intention.

🌼 Why Is It So Special?

Because it’s more than just art — it’s memory made tangible.

Every preserved flower holds meaning:

🌸 The first bouquet you held as a bride.

🌿 The farewell blooms from someone you miss.

🐾 A floral tribute to a beloved pet.

Preserving them in resin lets you:

  • Keep a physical piece of your story
  • Display your flowers beautifully for years
  • Pass down a handcrafted keepsake with emotional value

It's the perfect blend of nature, art, and heart.

🧊 How Does It Work?

We’ll cover the full process in this post here but here’s the short version:

  • You send us your fresh or dried flowers
  • We carefully dry, prep, and arrange them
  • They’re cast in layers of clear resin
  • Once cured, we polish, finish, and ship your keepsake!
