There should be free circula ■ tion of air around each bunch. Flowers with large heads such as hydrangeas and mari golds should n«»t he hunched together. Each head should bo dried separately. The time required for drying varies from a few days to sev eral weeks. After the materials are thoroughly dried, store them in a ho\. 2. The Bora* Method: Sitt four inches of borax in a box. Place flowers that have had the leaves removed upside down in th(< borax. I»n not let the flower heads touch eaeh other. Cover the flower with ' borax. Plare lid on box and put away.

The stein should In· sub merged in at least five ii.rhc* of the mixture |.rt »he hraneh j stay in th,. glycerin until the I leaves have absorbed the glv eerin. They will changc color 1 and texture. It usually takes , two or more weeks for the ! change to take place The leaves may he wiped off with ' a cloth dampened v illi the glv eerin lo delay the drying of the I leaf so that il can absorb j more of the glycerin Wipe off Ieach leaf and store in hoses Leaves of plants that crow j close to the ground. .Mieh a? ivy.
