Hi! My name is Andrea and I’m the owner and designer of dbandrea (formerly known as Pressed Flower Crafts). My company was born after I dried and pressed a beautiful bouquet of flowers that was given to me for Valentine’s Day. I wanted to keep not only the pictures and memories of a special day, but much more than that.
After I made my first piece, which still hangs in my bathroom, I started to get a lot of interest from friends and family. Months later, I created an Instagram account and a website, and before I knew it, I was selling my art to strangers! I never thought I could sell something I created with my hands, so it was a beautiful moment for me and my career. A few months in, I was contacted by a bride who wanted to preserve her bouquet, and that’s when I realized that I could do much more than sell art online or through family and friends.
