Start by placing each flower facedown, then cover the arrangement with waxed paper or a paper towel. Next, use a hammer to pound around the circumference of the flower, applying pressure to the petal area. Avoid putting pressure on the center of the flower; otherwise, pollen and moisture will stick to the paper as well, which doesn’t look as pretty. Repeat this process until you’re happy with how the hammered flower art looks—don’t forget, you can add accents and dimension by pounding leafy greenery, too!
