Storing Pressed Flowers

After flowers are dry, handle them carefully since they might be very fragile. Fold a piece of letter-sized white paper 1/4 up along the length and then 1/4 down on the other side. Fold the four corners in and use scotch tapes to secure as shown below. This paper folding can pop up and become a box when need to store or retrieve material and fold down flat when done. Mark the outside of the paper fold with the flower name or tape a small sample of the flower for easy identification. When you are done, fold flat and store in a plastic box with some silica gel inside.
