Does anyone know of a book or other especially for keeping pressed flowers in?

You should get My Book of Flowers by Princess Grace. It's out of print now but available on Amazon/ebay. It's so worth it - it details her method of flower arranging and also has a history of flowers in stories, poetry, as remedies food and drink etc.

Anyway, Grace recommends pressing the flowers between blotting paper in the pages of a telephone book.

Thanks for that but I've got a flower pressing kit but now they are pressed I want to store them until ready for use.
