Does anyone know where I can get my pressed flowers made into jewellery?

Hi all,

I have some pressed flowers that are very sentimental to me that are beginning to get incredibly fragile.
I would love to have them turned into a piece of jewellery, maybe a pendant necklace or charm for a bracelet.
I have seen this can be done with resin but really don't want to attempt it myself and ruin the flowers.

Does anyone know of a company or individual that does these kinds of things? I've seen lots for 'memorial jewellery' from ashes but nothing for flowers.

There is a company in America that does some really lovely pieces but don't ship to the UK.
I have attached the link below as an example myflowersforeverjewelry.com/collections/resin-flower-petal-designs
Or just goggle my flowers forever jewelry if you don't like links!

Any help would be really appreciated!! Grin

Have a look on Etsy or Facebook. Some sellers on there do commissions for customers.

I was looking on etsy but it seems all the resins are prebought and not actually made by the seller. I will send a few messages out.
May have found a niche in the market for my dragons den pitch Wink

I definitely had it done by an Etsy seller with some of our wedding flowers.

The colours faded really quickly in the resin though, I was a bit disappointed.

the website I linked mentions they can add colour into the petals prior to setting them so they don't fade as much.
Having said that, 2 of the flowers were sent home with a letter from the front line in WW1 so have pretty much zero colour left in them at all. I just dread the idea of them turning to dust and totally falling apart into nothingness.

Not quite the same but I had some Glastonbury wristbands made into resin bangles, the lady who did it moved to Switzerland but I think I googled independent resin jewellery makers or something similar and emailed some people
