Using Old Flowers for Jewelry?

Q, - My niece saved the rose bouquet that her boyfriend gave her just before his death. The roses have been sitting in a vase for over a year. They are both white and red in color. I would like make jewelry or a shadowbox for her as a memorial tribute to him. Is either option still possible after all this time?

A. - Either option is possible. Since the roses are air dried we can create a shadowbox using her flowers mixed with similar freeze dried flowers to give more of a fresh looking effect. We could include a bereavement poem or a photo, if she'd like. Rose Petal jewelry also makes a beautiful and meaningful keepsake to treasure for a lifetime. We can create the jewelry in any color. Either choice will make a wonderful gift for your niece.

See our rose petal jewelry page for ideas on what can be done with your flowers.

Rose petals for flower girls?

Q.- My friend's daughter is getting married in September and she wants to have rose petals for the flower girls to throw on the white carpet. I received 2 dz long stem majestic red roses for my anniversary. Can we use them?
