Everlastings: How to Grow, Harvest and Create with Dried Flowers Paperback – 14 May 2020

Wow what a beautiful book. It's laid out so it's easy to read, follow and digest with gorgeous photos and ideas. Also tells you what flowers are great for drying with clear instructions and results via different methods. So pleased I brought this, really wonderful and informative.

I bought this book as a gift for my wife. She was thrilled having followed Bex and Botanical Tales on Social Media for years.She has now read it cover to cover and loves it, but I suspect it’s the type of book she will go back to over and over again as a reference and inspiration.She said that it’s filled with stunning photography that really brings the ‘how to’ element alive. Bex is clearly a very talented artist, but she also has a wonderful way of explaining her techniques and tips in a clear and easy to follow way.Thoroughly recommended for those from novice to enthusiast to expert.

This book is absolutely beautiful, the cover is quite plain and I took a while before deciding to go for it and buy it, I wasn’t disappointed. It’s like a little treasure trove inside. Everything about it is lovely, the photography is great and the pictures are so pretty, lots of information about how to do things and techniques, loads of beautiful projects and so much inspiration is to be had. I love the rustic feel of the book it’s just what I was looking for. I would highly recommend it.

Lovely book. Wish I’d discovered it before I’d started making things! Lots of lists of things you can dry but no photos of these, so unless you know your plants you will need google! Projects are step by step and lots of photos of these.

This book is utterly beautiful. With gorgeous photos, inspiring projects and writing that takes you on a journey of how to create lasting pieces of art from nature to decorate your home year round. I really enjoyed the story of how Bex came to love, and work with, dried flowers. This book is more than just a instruction manual, it teaches you to notice the beauty and potential of everything nature has to offer. And then how to weave it into something to treasure and be proud of.I would highly recommend this book.

I have been waiting for this book to come out for long! And it does not disappoint! As a forager & amateur wreath maker myself, I am finding the What To Dry and Drying Techniques sections particularly useful. Beautifully presented, informative and very inspiring, it’s a book that I’ll cherish for years to come. Well done Bex!

I love this book and refer back to it constantly. It’s sympathetic and gentle and helped spark my interest in this topic even further. The second book is also wonderful.

This book has given me lots of ideas! It helpfully suggests what flowers/plants are best to use for drying and then how to make beautiful arrangements.
