About The Artist
Hi and welcome,
​
I’m Katie Tischler, your floral preservationist—a sentimental romantic, yogi, Malinois momager, and proud military spouse. I grew up in Illinois, where my love for pressing and drying flowers began, alongside a variety of other creative hobbies. After studying dental hygiene in college, I practiced for five years before transitioning to entrepreneurship with a permanent makeup studio in Chicago.
​
Three years later, I met the love of my life, sold my business, and moved to North Carolina for my husband's career in the Air Force. While waiting to obtain my NC dental hygiene license, I found myself with ample free time and a reignited passion for creativity. That's when Pine Pressed Flowers was born in 2019.
​
My favorite part of this journey is designing the final arrangement and watching all the elements come together. I treasure the creative freedom to reimagine your sentimental flowers beyond their original bouquet form. It’s an honor to be entrusted with something so meaningful, and I look forward to creating a beautiful work of art with your flowers to help you cherish your most precious memories.
