Dry Flowers with Silica Gel: An Amazing Technique
Silica gel consists of blue and white crystals that act as a desiccant absorbing nearby moisture. The blue crystals work as an indicator, turning pink when the mixture has reached maximum absorption. At that point, the gel needs replacing or recharging for reuse.
Silica gel works wonders to preserve the natural color and beauty of flowers. It’s the perfect choice for preserving a bridal bouquet or creating dried flowers for jewelry, wreaths, resin crafts, or potpourri.
Caution:Do not reuse your container for food preparation after drying flowers, as silica gel may absorb pesticides from flowers.
Tip: For optimal results, dry flowers of the same type together.
