Say it with flowers.

Meet Desa Lukic, who makes beautiful pressed flower art. I've known her for several years, and have bought her creations from time to time for presents for friends abroad. In the top photo, she's holding one of three works I bought for wedding presents. I bought one for my mother a number of years ago, and the colors have not faded! Below is a close-up of one of her other creations I bought.

These are really well done. I'm pleased that they don't fade. I love "tratincice" I see in the bottom one.

Your friend is so very talented. She does beautiful work. I have seen similar before but not of this quality.

a true work of art. She has a great eye for her craft. My mom used to do this as well. It really is an art form.
Nice!
Thanks for sharing Bibi.

The picture is beautiful and a lovely wedding gift. I love the greeting cards with pressed flowers I've bought from people in Belgrade.
