What is the best way that you save flowers from special events or funerals? I have frozen them and still today have them in my freezer but don't know what would become of them if I take them out. I have a couple that I tied together with yarn and laid them on a shelf to dry.
Someone said to press them in a book, hang them upside down to dry and I thought that years ago there was some sort of sand stuff you put them in and I think it was to preserve the colors I think. Also someone said that when the flowers fall apart save them till they turn to seed and plant them.
If you save flowers what is it that you do or like best. I have some flowers from my mothers funeral that I would like to do something with for my sister and brothers. The roses are already not looking so good.
