Select the best ones and decide which colours you want. Adding greenery amongst the flowers will create a unique look, so select some complementary foliage and leaves too. Gently clean your chosen flowers, dusting away any insects or debris. Remove as much moisture or wetness as possible. Generally, flowers with more moisture will take longer to press, but you should still microwave in short increments. (So perhaps you do 20 short bursts instead of 10.) If your flowers are getting “cooked,” you could try a few things: 1) do a shorter initial “burst” to make sure the flower doesn’t scorch, 2) reduce the power on your microwave, 3) do shorter bursts (maybe 5-10 seconds). I always open my Microfleur in between bursts and let the inner linings cool a bit before microwaving again.
