Modern Pressed Flower

10/29/2025

Hey friends- as you know this account took off over the early days of the pandemic as I offered to teach flower pressing over zoom. I went on to teach over 8000 people around the world my techniques. That same time - in isolation in my parents cabin - I wrote this show w money from a PPP grant we got. We went on to doing a mini regional tour of the US, a major tour in the UK and now I’m finishing up my tour in Australia. My biggest childhood passions - pressed flowers and - blew up in ways I could never have imagined. I would love to meet song of you who live in Melbourne - would love to invite you to my show. Here is a little snippet snuck from the balcony 😂 - anyway I’m here for 2 more weeks, then Canberra, Newcastle and Adelaide and then I fly home. My devotion to pressed flowers will save me as I let this beautiful chapter end / if you love DP I think you wil love this little show.

Happy to be featured in Rock n Roll Bride with this article on bouquet preservation!

Your wedding bouquet doesn’t need to die a slow, soggy death in a vase after your wedding. If you’ve put time, money, and meaning into your flowers, why not actually do something with them? Pressing your bouquet is an easy, hands-on way to make something that will last forever.Artist and founder...

MEET Nikole Nelson, originally from Hawaii, now living in Miami. Nikole is a multi hyphenate designer and artist who creates installations and conceptual environments. You can learn about the scope of her work here:

Here is what Nikole says about BLOOM:

“Investing in a mentorship course takes courage and trust. Allowing yourself ot open up to deeper artistic knowledge and human connection is a vulnerable space at times. The growth that emerged from BLOOM and the impact of Tricia’s master flower pressing experience blew me away. I was not anticipating how beautiful the connection to the group would be. We all came into the mentorship with different goals, styles, and levels of expertise -yet we were united and grew together. It is rare in the creative industry to find an artist who openly shares their journey, techniques, and resources. Tricia has a light and confidence that touches every person she encounters. I highly recommend this mentorship to anyone wanting to invest in themselves adn their creative journey. It was worth every penny!”

The mentorship opens tomorrow June 8th - you can join and start anytime, and work at your own pace.
If you join by midnight tonight - PST - you will receive 15% off.

MEET PAM HRICIK from from Charleston, South Carolina!

Here is what Pam says about BLOOM:

“Bloom was such a wonderful experience for me as a creative. I honed my flower pressing techniques with Tricia’s guidance, but even more importantly, I gained experience and confidence from the work we did during the course. The support and encouragement from my fellow Bloomers also helped me to be more confident in myself as an artist. And I had never considered myself an artist before the Bloom class!

Since then, I have started my own small pressed flower art business selling my art, as well as teaching pressed flower workshops locally. Currently my work is on display at my local library! A dream come true for me to have my art on public display! And it all started with Bloom. It has filled my life with so much joy and I am forever grateful to Tricia and Bloom!”

If you register by tomorrow, you’ll receive 15% off BLOOM. The mentorship opens June 8th - you can join and start anytime, and work at your own pace.

Beth of is a flower farmer turned passionate flower presser—and a BLOOM grad 💫

I get asked all the time to do corporate events, and when I can’t do them I call upon the Modern Pressed Collective! Beth answered the call and knocked it out of the park. The clients were thrilled, and so was she.

Here’s what she shared after:
“Do you ever just look at your art and everything you have created with your brand and think oh my gosh I actually did this! Well, that’s where I am this morning after having a few days of digesting last week and my cup is so full. I feel like I have spent a lifetime of dreaming and I have finally put my doing ‘out there’ and I am just blown away at the response…. I’m just a middle aged empty nester that loves art and flowers. Anyways, thank you again for believing in my abilities and sharing your joy. I low key want to join BLOOM again because I miss the camaraderie of my flower pressing friends from around the globe.”

This is exactly what BLOOM is all about. Beth made her investment back, plus more, for this one event.🌸
We launch June 8—self-paced, start when you’re ready.🌸
Join early and get 15% off through June 7 🌸

I wanted to give you a little sneak peek into what we cover inside BLOOM - my mentorship program that officially opens June 8!
While the focus is on creating beautiful pressed flower art, the deeper goal is to explore the core principles of being an artist—whatever your medium might be. I genuinely believe that what we learn through this process applies far beyond petals and glue.

One of the biggest goals of Bloom is to help artists not only grow creatively—but to stretch into new possibilities. Whether it’s refining their style, gaining confidence, or turning their passion into income, I love watching my mentees bloom (literally 🌸).

Meet — a Bloom graduate who already had a thriving wedding preservation pressed flower business in Perth, Australia. Here’s what they had to say:

“Since BLOOM, I’ve been slowly and quietly applying all the things I learned. I recently hosted my first exhibition, something I never imagined I’d be brave enough to do. I even pressed carrots and tiny tomatoes! Honestly, I wouldn’t have had the courage or skills to try that if it weren’t for the warmth and encouragement from Tricia and the beautiful people in the group. Being surrounded by such generous kind souls really stayed with me.” - Joanna Hiu (The Gallery J)
Their artistry and heart are exactly why I created Bloom. Pressed flowers have a way of spreading joy, and it’s been amazing to watch them share that joy in their own unique way.

Next round of Self Paced Bloom launches June 8—link in bio to join us! 💫
