In going through things to trim down for the move to Florida, I found these photos of Real roses that I painted, glittered and decoupaged. When the roses started to dry I did this. In Clearwater Florida I have lots of roses that had dried that I embellished this way to keep them. In these photos you can see that this one time I preserved the roses while still in the bouquet. Eventually just the roses were left. I hope that you enjoy!
