If you have received a bouquet of roses recently and now with due sadness you are observing the flowers wilting, hold on – there’s no need to throw away those gorgeous flowers as soon as you notice the first sign of wilting.
There are a few ways to use the withered petals and keep your dear flowers with you a little bit longer.
1.Potpourri Party 🎉
Turn your wilted roses into a fragrant potpourri mix. Dry those petals, throw in some herbs (rosemary, thyme, and a dash of cinnamon are bomb), and sprinkle a few drops of essential oils. Let it sit and voila – your room’s smelling fresh!
2.Pressed Flower Art
Ever thought of turning those petals into rad wall art? Press them between book pages until they’re flat and dry. Arrange on a board, frame up, and BAM – DIY masterpiece!
3. Vintage Vibes Bouquet
Go retro! Tie your bouquet with a band, hang it upside down, and let it dry for some vintage-colored flowers. Pro-tip: Silica gel (found at craft stores) speeds things up and keeps the color popping!
4. Bath Bomb Petals
Combine dried petals with Epsom salt, powdered milk, and a hint of essential oil. Your next bath? Totally Instagram-worthy. 🛁

Add some love to homemade candles by setting those dried flowers on the surface, then layer with clear wax. Perfect for vibing up your space or gifting!

Ditch the store-bought and make your own pure rose water. Boil rose petals, let the steam condense, and collect the droplets. Fresh and fab for your skin!

Shower your space with rose petals for that ultimate romantic moment. Bed, bathtub, hallway? You can make a heart with the petals, you can write out some words… Be creative, you can come up with many other ideas!
