Leaf and Flower Press

A Lifelong Hobby.  Our Leaf Press consists of a beautifully designed and crafted cherry and maple hand press and 50 sheets of blotting paper. The kit option includes five magnetic, acrylic display frames also. The Press. Our leaf press is made of the finest American hardwoods available and is designed to last a lifetime. The sides are made of cherry; the dowel, screw and knob portions are made of maple.  It measures 8 1/2" tall and 9 3/4" wide and is finished with Danish oil. The press includes 50 sheets of 5" x 8" acid-free, absorbent blotting paper that may be used repeatedly. The Frames. Five acrylic (plexiglass) 4" X 6" frames are included in the kit with basic gray "chipboard" inside. There is a piece of magnetic tape adhered on the back of the frames.  If you wish, you may substitute the chipboard with construction paper, mat board or card stock. A Little Background from Tyler.
