Potpourri Flowers

Keep the memories of your gift forever.

Turn a flower arrangement into Potpourri.

Potpourri is a very easy way to capture a memory for a lifetime. First gather as many of the flowers as possible from your arrangement. Try to do this just before the flowers reach full bloom.

Dry the flowers using either silica or just air drying. Once the flowers are dried, separate the flowers from their stems, keeping only the flowers.

Mix the flowers together, adding any extra flower essence that you might want. Mix the ingredients well. Some of the flowers will actually give off more fragrance when broken or crushed.

Store the mixture of flower petals in a sealed container for 2~3 days. Finally, continue to enjoy your flowers.
