Beautiful everlasting flowers

We love them, the dried flower bouquets. In principle, they last forever and are therefore an environmentally friendly and sustainable flower solution. You can buy ready-made bouquets and bundles of them in most flower shops, but you can also easily dry them yourself. You can use all kinds of straw, twigs, seed stalks and grasses that can still be found in nature, even though it is winter, but real flowers can also be easily dried. Go for flowers with thin stems, because they are best suited. Actually, the decorative ones are just hanging to dry on a coat rack or standing in the baskets in which they are gathered. If you buy fresh flowers and dry them yourself, you can then arrange them in baskets.

You can put small bouquets in vases, jars or simply have them lying on a nice plate. Especially at this time of year, it is wonderful to have flowers in the home, but you can easily use dried flowers all year round. You can also tie wreaths of the dried flowers in the same way as you normally tie a wreath.
