    If you let your flowers soak in sugar water before hanging them to dry, it preserves the colour a lot better!
    Also, hanging them somewhere dark is better. (Direct) light bleaches.
    Just my two cents as someone who loves dried flowers ;D Lovely video and amazing aesthetic.

      This might be a ridiculous question but do you soak the whole flower (stem and petals and everything) or do you just add sugar to the water in the vase and let the stems sit in the water like normal?

    • @mackenziegraham6162
      @mackenziegraham6162 6 лет назад +77

      chocolateyCOOKIES lol just let the stems sit in the water so they suck up the diluted sugar

    I once expirimented a little and put a bunch of grasses and flowers in a bottle which I filled with rubbing alcohol.
    The water turned green after a while and when I removed it I realised the all the flowers had turned completely white/beige.
    It wasn't what I went for, but having a bottle filled with completely white plants sitting on my desk looked pretty cool, they had a very classy, ghostly vibe.

    Little piece of advice: I never put my flowers in any precious books because even with the paper the pages can get wavy. And as all my books are imposant to me, I just put the paper with the flowers between two books instead of pages. I also use newspapers instead of regular paper because they absorb the moisture better.

    • @FabiolaVettese
      @FabiolaVettese 4 года назад +3

      Oh, great trick! I also wouldn't recommend placing the flowers in between the pages of books, because the pages get stained from the moisture from the flowers. I often put them between paper and lately, I've been using pieces of laminate boards to press them.

    • @anushkajariwala129
      @anushkajariwala129 3 года назад +2

      If you put them between the newspaper, doesn’t the ink get on the flora?

    • @lindakirste4540
      @lindakirste4540 3 года назад +1

      @@anushkajariwala129 not if you use plain black and white pages. Pictures or glossy pages from advertiments can be tricky, but these also dont work as well because the gloss is not so good for absorbing moisture

    This inspired me to go out and pick a couple of these beautiful soft purple flowers that are down the street from my house, every time I go for a walk I run my fingers along the soft buds and watch the bees buzz around them. I would love to keep that memory in a journal ❤️ I love your channel by the way!!!

    One of my favorite memories as a child was gathering some autumn leaves and my mother helping me iron them between two pieces of waxed paper. They are pretty on their own, but viewed through the wax paper they are lovely too. Gathering different kinds of leaves is a good opportunity to teach children of all ages what kind of trees the leaves fell from. And putting them between wax paper allows you to make them into a book or a journal. The leaves should continue to dry and that is a way of preserving them and cataloging them as well.
