Enjoy this beautiful #shorts tutorial on how to dry flower bouquets like a pro!
Here are the simple instructions:

1. Tie the bouquet into a bundle using cotton or other natural fiber string or twine. Rubber bands do not work as well because the stems will slip once the flowers start drying and shrinking. The twine has a natural texture that adheres to stems a lot better.

2. Hang the flower bouquets upside down from a strong rope or rod and space the bouquets so that there is good air circulation. The better the air circulation, the faster the flowers will dry.

3. Hand flower bouquets out of direct sunlight as the sunlight will bleach the flower colors

4. When the flowers and stalks are fully dry (crispy) spray a bit of hair spray or floral preserving spray to help lock out moisture.

5. Make decorative wreaths, hand bouquets, and resin flower art with your dried flowers! Be creative!
