I want to preserve my wedding bouquet. Its been drying out for a couple of months now and still has colour?

Get some really cheap aerosol hair spray, like Rave or Aqua net, or something like that. Saturate the bouquet with it, hang it upside down at the top of a window, preferably a curtain rod that can support the weight, depending if it heavy. This will help it to dry out quicker, and hold it together!! I own a flower shop, and have tried this many times myself....

Reply:I did this for my daughter when she graduated and received flowers.





Remove the flowers from the bouquet;


Dry the flowers in silica gel; and Silica gel is easily found in craft stores and on the Web.


It dries the flowers quickly and can be used again and again.


Arrange the flowers in shadow box frames


I also added her invitation and her grad picture





If you are not interested in DIY then you can have it freeze dried which leaves them the most realistic looking and believe that most florists preserve flowers as well. What ever you do you need to plan it in advance because you will need to get started right away.





Here is a site that lists a variety of preserving options. It will give you some idea of what you want to do.
