Lacewing Arts & Flowersspecializes in freeze dried floral and keepsake preservation.Florists love the process of freeze drying is the most advanced method of floral preservation to date.Good Housekeeping Magazine and NBC Dateline recently rated freeze drying the best preservation method available today because flowers will retain their natural shape and vivid color. Meaningful keepsakes can be created with freeze dried flowers from weddings, anniversaries, births and funerals. To protect them, we display them in three dimensional cases, acrylic domes, or shadowboxes available in multiple sizes and shapes. We customize the display with photos, invitation, announcements or other memorabilia. Another service we have available is document restoration. Using the same process of freeze drying, we can and extract the water from items that have been damaged by floods, storms and fires. This method is superior to other drying methods, because the items maintain their integrity, it prevents inks and dyes from runnning and inhibits the growth of mold and mildew.
