Wick'n'Wax Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 If I wanted to embed rose petals, in a hurricane shell, do I have to dry them first? or can I just pull them off a rose? I'm looking for the cheapest way of getting themthanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatinDucky Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I would strongly recommend drying or using silk petals... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Bug Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Hi. I saw a pretty cane at a gift shop the other day. It was light pink in color and had like rose potpourri added. Some floated to the top, but some did stay in the rest and it was quite attractive. I plan on trying to make one after Christmas. I just don't think you could use fresh flowers and the one I made with the silk bled dye a bit and I didn't like how it came out. hth.

sharyl55 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Like SatinDucky said you would need to press and dry them. It would probably be easier to use silk rose petals.So how did your Memorial candles turn out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wick'n'Wax Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 I'll look for silk ones then, thanks.Sharyl, they came out brilliant thanks, the 'mum's were overwhelmed.They appeared on TV, not sure if its still on their website though. It's the BBC site and its East Midlands Today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
