Whispers on Flowers
+ Handmade Maple Flower Press
Some flowers symbolize love.
Laurel symbolizes the story worth remembering!
For centuries, laurel has been associated with honor, achievement, triumph, and enduring legacy. Woven into crowns for poets, scholars, and heroes, it became a symbol of lives and stories that deserved to be remembered.
This special bundle includes a signed copy of Whispers on Flowers and a handcrafted maple flower press engraved with the original laurel artwork featured as a chapter illustration in the novel.
Inspired by the flowers that carry hidden meanings throughout Clara Hartwell’s story, this keepsake combines literature, art, and the timeless practice of preserving nature’s beauty.
Included in This Bundle
✍️ Signed paperback copy of Whispers on Flowers
🌸 Handmade maple flower press engraved with original laurel artwork
🔩 Stainless steel hardware
💐 Blotting paper for flower pressing
The Flower Press
Each flower press is handcrafted in Washington State by Whitley Woodworking and engraved with my original botanical illustration.
Made from maple wood and fitted with stainless steel hardware, it is designed to preserve flowers, leaves, and botanical keepsakes for years to come.
Every piece of maple wood has its own unique grain and character, making each flower press one of a kind.
The Meaning of Laurel
Victorian Meaning: Triumph, Honor, Glory
Long before the Victorians assigned meanings to flowers, laurel wreaths crowned poets, athletes, and leaders throughout the ancient world. In flower language, laurel came to symbolize achievement, recognition, and the stories that endure beyond a single lifetime.
In Whispers on Flowers, laurel appears during a turning point in Clara’s journey, when the truths she has fought to uncover finally begin to find their voice.
A Note from Matilda
One reason I chose to include laurel in Whispers on Flowers is because it speaks not only of victory, but of perseverance.
Every book begins as an idea, every pressed flower begins as a fleeting bloom, and every meaningful story survives because someone cared enough to preserve it.
I hope this little flower press inspires you to save a few beautiful moments of your own.
