Finishing, Sealing, and Installation

The final steps ensure longevity and a professional finish. Proper sealing protects your work from moisture, oils from hands, and UV light, which can cause fading over time.

1. 🛡️ Applying a Final Sealant

After the hot glue has cooled and hardened completely (at least one hour), apply a clear, waterproof sealant. A spray acrylic sealant is efficient and provides an even coat. Apply 2-3 light, misting coats according to the can's directions, allowing full drying time between each. This layer will also help blend the surface to a uniform shine.

2. ⚙️ Attaching the Hardware

Most drawer pulls are attached with a bolt that passes through a hole in the furniture and screws into the back of the pull. Insert the bolt through the drawer front, then thread on your custom flower pull. Tighten securely using a screwdriver from the inside of the drawer. If your pull uses a different mechanism, follow its standard installation method.

3. ✨ Care and Maintenance

Clean your floral drawer pulls gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or soaking them in water. While the sealant provides protection, treat them as decorative pieces—the longevity of the pressed flowers is best preserved with gentle handling.
