Loving Dried Flowers...
I must admit, when I heard dried flowers were making a reappearance I did take a deep sigh...
However, I am converted. No longer conserved to be dusty displays in the fireplace, dried flowers do have a place in the home, weddings and for display work.
There is something quite satisfying in drying your own flowers. Test different varieties - and we did find that the easiest way (certainly when you want to dry in bulk) was to use the traditional method of hanging in bunches in a dark place.
Store your flowers in a box in the dark wrapped in tissue paper until you are ready to use them.
