Wedding Flower Preservation
It’s a lovely idea to preserve some flowers from the day, and It’s actually easier than you might think to dry your own flowers, and there are a few different ways you can do this.
The main thing is to pick flowers with thinner stems as flowers with thick stems hold a lot of water and drying doesn't work as well.
Air Drying Flowers
Air drying is the best drying technique to retain the naturally occurring oils in flowers.
Flowers need to be dried in a dark, dry space. It has to be dark for the leaves to retain their colours and dry so that they don't get damp. You also want a place which isn't too warm and has decent ventilation. A lot of people try to use airing cupboards but if they have boilers in it can be too warm - a garden shed is perfect. .
Pressing
Another way to preserve your flowers for a more extended period would be to press them. Pressing will remove all the moisture from the flowers. You can preserve the flat dried flowers in a container and use them whenever required for example for an Anniversary or you can now frame them. You can purchase a flower press for this or just use a kitchen towel and a big heavy book for drying your flowers.
