The kit adds 24 blotting papers, tweezers, scissors, a knife, a needle, a step-by-step manual and a tote bag, so the press can travel to a garden, a hike or a wedding venue. The listing pitches it for keeping a bridal bouquet or seasonal blooms that can later be framed or used on cards. It is a gentle gift for a gardener or anyone who likes to keep flowers from a special day, at around $29.
