What Makes Dried Flowers so Special?
Dried flowers, also known as everlasting flowers, capture the fleeting beauty of fresh flowers.
They are known to last months and often years. No need for fresh water here! They require no cleaning of vases or fresh water.
Talk about sustainability. These fit the bill. If you do tire of them, you can add them to the compost pile.
If you are like me and hate to waste a beautiful flower, there are many ways you can utilize every last petal.
Here are a few ideas…
- Create dried floral wreaths
- Make potpourri
- Create simmer pots
- Dry a fresh bouquet and display it dried in a vase
- Make flower casts
- Create monoprints/ impressions
- Press the flowers between the pages of a book or in a flower press, and use them to make ornaments, bookmarks, and keepsakes.
