The title is a misnomer really, because this was not so much progress as I needed The Principles of Knitting by June Hiatt to weight something else on my desk. Well, a paper project where I am making some booklets that have covers being glued.
So, when I was thinking of something to use as a "paper weight" I thought of The Principles of Knitting which has more than 700 pages. A fabulous book but so far I have mostly used it for drying flowers and now, weighting glued covers!
In the summer when the hydrangeas were out I was given a few blooms and another friend gave me some Coleus leaves.
After I put them between cotton makeup sponge circles I inserted a dozen or so between pages in the PoK. Now, months later, I have pulled them out.
The sponges did leave a little residue on the plant parts but that will be easily removed.
The new ones from pressing are the leaves and white blooms on the top of the pile. You can see the residue but it is not a problem.
