Drying Roses

The coming months will bring occasions for us to give or receive roses - Mother's Day, wedding and baby showers, graduation and award ceremonies as well as summer anniversaries. For this Pink Saturday  I thought I'd share a how to  article on drying roses!



Click here to read about two basic ways to dry roses : air drying while hanging, or using silica gel to preserve them. While doing a little research online I read that you can also use basic white glue and sand - news to me! A friend of mine uses her microwave and silica gel, but it requires some trial and error to get this method right for various rose size and colors. Do you have a food dehydrator collecting dust forgotten in the back of a cupboard? Those work well for drying roses.



Have a rosy Saturday!
