Resin or Shadow Box? How to Choose the Right Floral Keepsake
Share
Preserving Flowers, Preserving Meaning
Your flowers tell a story—of love, loss, joy, or new beginnings. Whether you're preserving a wedding bouquet, a memorial arrangement, or a sentimental gift, choosing between a resin piece and a shadow box is the first step in creating a keepsake that feels just right.
At Endless Florals, we specialize in both styles. Here’s how to decide which one suits your story best.
Resin Flower Preservation: A Modern Take on Timeless Memories
Resin keepsakes are made by embedding your real flowers in clear, glass-like resin. The result is a clean, modern piece that lasts a lifetime.
🌟 Best For:
Preserving full, 3D blooms
Minimalist or contemporary home decor
Gifting functional items (trays, coasters, ring holders)
✅ Highlights:
360° view of your flowers in vivid detail
UV protection to keep colors vibrant
Sealed, durable, and waterproof
Available in shapes like hearts, cubes, or hexagons
“I am absolutely speechless with how incredible my flowers turned out! Nikki is so talented and extremely helpful. I cannot rave more about how in love I am with my display!”

Shadow Box Keepsakes: A Classic, Framed Tribute
A shadow box displays your flowers in a deep, glass-covered frame. This traditional format adds warmth and charm to any space.
🕊️ Best For:
Combining flowers with personal mementos (photos, vows, fabrics)
Creating a framed story or tribute
Hanging keepsakes on walls
✅ Highlights:
Pressed or lightly 3D flower options
Custom backgrounds and layouts
Ideal for memorial displays or wedding collages
More space for meaningful extras
What to Consider When Choosing:
Your Personal Style – Is your home more modern or classic?
The Flowers You’re Preserving – Are they thick, large blooms or delicate petals?
Where It Will Live – Will it sit on a desk or hang on a wall?
What Else You Want to Include – Photos? Ribbons? Notes?
The Purpose – Memorial? Wedding? Gift?
Need help deciding? We’re here to guide you.
