The Ceramic Botanist by Louise Condon Designs

Wedding Bouquet Preservation in Handmade Ceramic Keepsakes

 

Transform your wedding flowers into timeless ceramic art.
At Ceramic Botanist, I create lasting keepsakes from your bouquet — pressed into clay and turned into beautiful, rustic-modern home décor.

​

 A Beautiful Way to Remember Your Day

Each piece I create is bespoke and carefully made by hand. Your flowers are pressed into stoneware or cast in plaster to capture their texture, shape, and beauty.

Popular keepsakes include:

• Pressed flower vases & jugs

• Botanical wall tiles, plaques or print trays

• Miniature bud vases – perfect for bridesmaid or mother-of-the-bride gifts

• Trinket dishes, display bowls great as a statement sideboard piece or as a functional piece, and other custom items such as cups, plates, lights and candle holders.

No two pieces are the same — I respond to the size and structure of each bouquet to design something unique.

​

What Are They Made From?

I use stoneware clay, which gives each piece long-lasting strength and brings out the beautiful detail in each flower.
Some pieces are also available as plaster casts — these enhance texture and create a sculptural effect.

All ceramic vases are glazed inside so they can hold water and flowers or can be shiny glazed allover. I can also add personalised names or wedding dates upon request.

 

Flower Delivery & Process

Whether your bouquet is freshly picked or dried for over 15 years — I can often work with it.

Here’s how it works:

1. Enquire or book your date

2. Drop off your bouquet (if local to Cheshire) or send via post

3. I press, cast and fire your piece over several weeks

4. Your item is glazed, finished, and carefully sent back to you

​A Thoughtful Keepsake or Wedding Gift

Miniature bud vases are especially popular for gifting.
They’re made using a single flower from your bouquet and make a unique thank-you gift for your bridesmaids, mums, or anniversary gifts.
