What I did with the flower I got from my Grandmother's funeral was hung it upsidedown. Just spray it with hairspray & it'll last forever.


I've never heard of freezing them. Flowers often turn black when they are frozen.

You can dry them. Hang them upside down in a dark place for a week or so.
hi
they will never be the same ,,,why dont you press them in some books
Some flowers can not be frozen.
Your local flower shop would be happy to loOK at them and tell you, if it is ok.
A good way to preserve flowers is getting some silica gel-beads (looks like sand) and putting the flower in it . Read the directions on how long to microwave it for.

The silica will suck every last bit of moisture from the flower, but keep it perfectly preserved. You can then spray it with some lacquer to keep them forever.

You should be able to find silica from art/craft stores.
