I bought sola wood flowers for my daughters wedding. Wedding is in July of next year.When would you recommend to start working on them. When should I soften them and when should I dye them.Or should I just put softener in dye. How far in advance can we make our bridal bouquet.TIA
You can start working in them now if you want! Make sure you store them in a room temperature dry place in open containers. Putting the glycerin in the dye is faster, so I would recommend that. But really you can work on them whenever you'd like because they are meant to last a LONG time! :)
2 cups warm almost boiling water Mix in 1 1/2 tablespoons of vegetable glycerin or 2 1/2 tablespoons both amounts soften the flour she said Dip flower in coating the whole flower Adjust the flower petals to your liking Let the flower dry
On my website I go into detailed step by step instructions on how to use the glycerin on Sola Flowers :) solafloweruniversity.com/how-to-soften-sola-flowers/
It was a bit confusing - so for 2 cups warm water 3 tablespoons? That gives you the softest flower?
Thanks for making this! Any recommendations on what to do with the glycerin water after youre done?

I’m sure you’re highly skilled, but a specific ratio would have been helpful at the end of the video.
It's about time someone commented on this video with hundreds of views. 😂
Have you ever added the softner with the dye?
Yes! And that is the most efficient way to do a dip dye!

Can you add text to clarify what you are adding: 1 cup hot water, 1 tablespoon glycerin, additional 2 tablespoons glycerin, etc.
Hello, Can I do this with flowers that are dyed different colors?
Glycerin can be done after they are dyed yes. Although it does work better before you dye it 😉 Happy Crafting!
