Flower/Rose

There is some development time that are best for cutting flowers for drying. This can be very specific for different plants or even different cultivators of the plant. In general, it is best to pick immature flowers because the flowers remain open during the drying process. If you choose a flower at the moment, it seems perfect, it will continue to open while drying, leaving you with a flower past that ‘perfect moment’. Most people pick flowers too late. For example, have you ever seen a beautiful dried rose? If you really look at it, the flower is still fairly closed. Avoid harvesting flowers too mature in development. These flowers are usually paid on drying and will not hold up well in arrangements.

The sand is very fine, clean, dry and preferably salt free. Screening is recommended to remove coarse grains and particles. Wash the sand into the water repeatedly to remove the soil is also recommended. wet sand can be dried in an oven by placing pans and bake at 250 degrees for 20-30 minutes. Remember to use only flowers first and deal with them quickly wilting.

For dry sand, place an inch or two of sand in a bowl, spoon away a small amount of sand to form a depression in the surface places the head upright in this depression flower and press the sand in around the outside of the flower to support it. Next, scoop a little sand in your hand and let him run in the rain of light around each petal. Start with the outer petals and the current working row by row, allowing the sand to build equally on all sides of each petal so its position and shape are not changed. Sandy dried flowers are fragile, be careful when removing the sand. Note that the flowers should be stored in a vault to protect the petals from breaking.
