Make dry flowers with desiccant

If you want the beauty of the flowers to last forever, you can air-dry the flowers. If there is no air-drying condition, then try a desiccant!

  1. First find a large glass jar with good airtightness.
  2. Put the cut flowers into the jar and make sure that the jar can fit.
  3. Slowly pour the silica gel desiccant into the bottle to fill the gap, be careful not to deform the flower.
  4. Seal the bottle tightly and keep it from leaking. 
  5. Wait patiently. (Flowers with low water content can be dried in 3~5 days, and those with large water content need 7~10 days)
