Top 5 Creative Things To Do With Dried Flowers

I remember watching fantasy movies like Narnia, Merlin or LOTR when I was really young and the witches would always live in these old, creppy cabins. You know, the ones with animal bones and dried herbs hanging from the rafters. I remember promising myself that my house would look just like that when I grew up (with a few more secret doors of course). After my family changed houses I got the opportunity to set up how my room looked, and I hadn't forgotten the promise my younger self made. However, animal bones and hanging plants from the ceiling was something my parents probably wouldn't like as much as I would, so I had to tone it down a bit for the moment.
I was pleasantly surprised with what I could do on the dried flowers part. You can press and frame the flowers, make a pot pourri, or simply put them in a vase.
Here are some of my favourite tutorials on how to dry flowers and what to do with them afterwards.
