How long does pressed flower art last?
For years & years if it is properly cared for. The best way to preserve the flowers and make sure they last for years to come is to NOT put the picture in direct sunlight or even strong indirect light. Strong light is the most destructive force to pressed flower art. All of my artwork is framed using standard glass. If you must hang your flowers in a place that has some fairly strong indirect light, it might be a good investment to purchase UV conservation glass for your piece at some point . Even this special glass, however, cannot keep vibrant flower colors intact in bright light!
