Preserving my Bouquet?

smcdonald03 · November 2009

Good Morning Ladies,I want to get my bouquet preserved but the place I was going to use is really expensive. I thought maybe I could do it myself. Has anyone done this? If you have can you give any tips?TIA

I suck at these things. I just hung mine upside down and it got all moldy and nasty. Why don't you cross-post on the DIY board? Those ladies are very crafty.

Hang upside and the key is to spray with hairspray. It work great for mine.

Thanks for the hairspray tip. I hadn't heard of that.

I bought those flower drying crystals from the craft store - totally did not work very well at all.

My sister's cat ate hers! I was thinking of getting some kind of glass box to put it in so our dog won't get to it.

I hung mine and both my BM's bouquets upside down, and they dried beautifully. I think it depends on what flowers you used in your bouquet and the relative humidity when you are trying to dry them.
