Drying Roses for Display

Cottage Roses
I added more roses to the garden this year, and I decided to try drying a tiny bouquet for winter photos.

It is really easy to dry roses. I have found the best way to get a nice look is to hang them upside down.

I have used a rubber band to hold the flowers together, and it works well. I have used this method before.

This is the same flower about two months later. They are now all dry and ready to style for any photos.

They make a nice addition to my tea tray. I think I need a bigger bouquet. I might still have time to harvest some before winter.
