i heard a rumor that if you spray them with hairspray they will stay together better...has anyone done this? i dont want to ruin them :D

I've heard that too. I've never tried it before tho'.

I don't know. Interesting. Maybe google it?

Found this ..

"What do you treat dried flowers with?

Most of our flowers we simply air-dry. We do not recommend spraying or 'treating' them with anything. Regarding the wives tale about spraying your drieds with hair spray: there are a few (i.e. Globe Amaranth) flowers that have 'wimpy' stems, which under high humid conditions get limp and bend. These types of flowers will benefit with a spray of 'humidity sensitive' hair spray."

humidity sensitive hairspray...? interesting thanks!!!

i have actually done the hairspray thing and it suprisingly works very well!

did you spray it while they were still drying or when they were fully dried out?

never tried it but it sounds interesting

I've never used hairspray, but I've dried them hanging upside down. This way they don't dry wilted over...

yah they are currently hanging upside in my closet:D

yep
that's what i do to!!!
i keep all my flowers i get.
i can't bring myself to throw them away!!!

i threw all of mine away when i moved...BUT i just got some from db for my bday and i want to keep them :D

I've never used hairspray to save them. I usually save open blooms by using the Silica Gel that you can get at Michael's. Otherwise I dry them upside down

hmm yah i have them upside down:D i shall see how it works out:P
