Flower Preservation
Our Story
Welcome to The Dried Blossom Co. — a small, family-owned business nestled in the heart of Chehalis, Washington, with a deep passion for preserving life's most beautiful moments.
We understand that every flower holds a story. A whisper of emotion. A memory too precious to let fade. That is why we have dedicated our craft to transforming the flowers from your wedding, memorial, and special occasions into stunning, handcrafted keepsakes that you can cherish for a lifetime.
Using our specialized freeze-drying and advanced preservation techniques, we preserve your actual flowers — maintaining their natural three-dimensional shape, rich color, and delicate detail exactly as they were on your most treasured day.
From a single bloom to a full bridal bouquet, every piece we create is thoughtfully and lovingly crafted, tailored to reflect your unique story and the emotions held within every petal. We invite you to indulge in the gentle artistry of flower preservation — where fleeting moments are transformed into timeless treasures.
We believe that everyone deserves a beautiful, custom-made keepsake to celebrate life's most special moments. That is why we invite you to reach out and speak with us about designing a custom display tailored specifically to your budget. No matter what you have in mind, we will work closely with you to bring your vision to life in a way that is both meaningful and affordable. You can contact us for information about a payment plan or read in Terms and Conditions about our policy.
We would love for you to get to know the people behind the petals. Meet the small family team at The Dried Blossom Co. and learn a little about the hearts and hands that lovingly craft every keepsake we create.
Kathy Anderson
Founder & Floral Preservation Artist
Kathy's passion for botanicals began long before she ever touched a freeze dryer. Rooted in the quiet rhythms of lavender farming, she spent years cultivating, harvesting, and working with dried lavender, learning firsthand how flowers hold memory, fragrance, and meaning long after they leave the stem. That deep love for the natural world set the foundation for everything that followed. As her curiosity grew, Kathy pursued more technical preservation methods — eventually mastering freeze drying, the gold standard for locking in a flower's shape, color, and delicate detail at its absolute peak.
Today, Kathy specializes in creating one-of-a-kind keepsake displays from the flowers that matter most — wedding bouquets, anniversary arrangements, funeral tributes, baby showers, and any occasion worth remembering. Each display is thoughtfully composed and custom-crafted, transforming your blooms into a piece of art that can be cherished for years to come.
