How to Dry Flowers

You will need 4 different kinds of flowers with 6 to 8 blossoms, stems, and leaves. Try to collect flowers from outside, if you can't then visit a flower shop. I purchased these flowers at the grocery store.

You will also need the following:

• scissors with rounded or blunt tips
• basket or large grocery bag
• several sheets of newspaper
• ruler
• string
• closet clothes rod or laundry drying rack
• two 8" long pieces of 1/2" wide satin ribbon
• 2 small vases

Once you've chosen your flowers and gathered the materials, you're ready to get started - Sorting the Flowers.
