Instructions:

Press flowers traditionally or with the Microwave Flower Press.

Using a foam brush, coat the back of the mirror with gloss sealer. While still wet, place the leaves on the mirror back and recoat with sealer.

When dry, give another coat of sealer and position the flower on the mirror. Make sure there are no air bubbles under the flower. While it is still wet, paint another coat of sealer on top. When dry give another 3 coats of sealer allowing to dry between coats. These final coats will help project the design during use.
