Reply:Years ago I dried my prom flowers in a product called "Silica Gel". It's like dry particles. Ask about it at an art and crafts store.
Reply:They can be dried in the microwave, and they turn out very well. I have used this method. For directions:

Reply:just dry it in any way but not under the sun cause the smell will be less if dried under the sun.
