Even dried roses are beautiful, but I sadly end up throwing them away eventually. Today I went strolling through the gardens of Etsy for ideas on how to preserve a rose forever. Many crafters and jewelry artists are growing pressed rose art and accessories in their shops. Aren't these pretty ways to recycle flowers that would wilt away to dust if left alone?

ReplyDeleteThat is lovely! Many of the roses blooms my husband has given me have been dried and are in a lovely crystal vase.
ReplyDeleteYes, the bangle is nice. Have you thought about preserving roses from each year pressed in a little book? I imagine you could even use those photo albums with the magnetic pages.
ReplyDeleteHow pretty! Thanks so much for featuring my bookmark! Love your blog too- always glad to find another one to peruse!
