Aleene’s DIY Craft Super Glue Liquid
Mini glass frames
Pressed flowers
White cardstock
Tweezers
Scissors
Step 1: (optional) Arrange pressed flowers onto cardstock
Use scissors to cut white cardstock to fit your mini frames, then place the pressed flowers onto the cardstock as desired. This extra step allows you to plan your floral arrangement before applying the super glue. Get creative with your arrangement to create unique pressed flower art!
Step 2: Apply super glue to cardstock
Apply a thin, even layer of Aleene’s DIY Craft Super Glue Liquid to the surface of your cardstock. Use the applicator tip to spread the super glue as needed.
Step 3: Place preserved flowers onto cardstock
Place the pressed flowers onto the glued cardstock, then press the flowers gently to adhere into place. Once all your pressed flowers have been placed, allow the glue to dry completely.
Step 4: Trim preserved flowers and place into glass frame
Use scissors to trim the edges of your pressed flower art so it will fit into the mini glass frame. Open the frame, then place your pressed flower art inside.
