I did this in September 2016, It's now January 2018 and I still have the same flowers. They still look amazing. The colour fades but the shape still holds. Because the colour fades the method works best with white flowers. It may be ideal to mix some food dye to match the colour of the flower. Also it's best to keep them in a dry airy area for at least a month, if you put them somewhere hot and humid you risk them growing mold.

This sounds like an excellent way to decorate a Christmas tree! I can just imagine my tree covered in fresh (waxed) flowers! No water needed and they would last all December

Thank you for this video! I wanted to preserve roses from my second cousins funeral and give one to her daughter so she can always have a rose from her mother’s casket spray

Great Video. Beautiful outcome. Thank you for sharing!

I was thinking of doing this is. Done! The beauty and the beast dome thing! For my daughter for valentines!

Doing this with the first lilies I've ever grown!!

Thank you this is what I being looking for and much research no result until this one thank you .

Why not wax the stem as well to preserve it all?

Loosing mummy is the beadest on earth!! i feel with you....🌺☘️🌿🌸

preservation is forever....not just weeks. silica sand and freeze dried works best for shadow boxes

Gorgeous!

i love this!

my husband bought me a bunch of yellow roses today its our anniversary..... i was thinking how to preserve those flowers cuz i wanna keep it.when i saw your channel i was so happy and i love your idea about on how to preserve flowers.thank you.more power.

Wow very creative

Beautiful ❤️

A good tip if u want to not loose the color add some coloring to the wax

Excellent tutorial! Thank you very much. I wonder if you have to dip the stem in the wax as well?

Ima preserve my wedding bouquet this way

thank you

How long do the colors last, after a while do the petals fall off? And also, could you do this method with already dried flowers to keep the petals from cracking?

Nice work 🌹Stunning Roses 🌹 very nice ,I like that ! Yea GOD IS GREAT! Amen!

So pretty They look so fresh ow long do they last?

Thanks for your video. After the wax hardened, there were visible accumulations of wax on the tips of the pedals from the flower being held upside down. Have you experienced that? My solution was to touch the ends of the pedals to a paper towel after pulling the flower out of the hot wax. This prevented the wax accumulations. I don’t know if it prevented the wax from adequately coating the tips of the pedals.

thank you for your video, but the link that shows how the flowers look after 4 weeks doesn't work. please can you sand the picture?

Genius 💖💖💖💖

hi, love your flowers.. and how long do they last for?

Can I add essential oil into my wax to give smell or no??

We're do you buy the wax.? I love your video.very beautiful.thank you.!!😁💡👍

can you do this to a flower and fill the vase with wax?

Can you add some candle dye to keep the color?

How long do they last waxed I just got a bouquet of my favorite colored roses

I notice the flowers aren't put into water. So they don't need to be? Thank you as this will be good as I was thinking of buying the soy for candles etc so I will have more use for the soy. Also we have extremely hot and humid weather and don't know if this will degrade them or our fans and air con. Thanks

Could you use workable fixative to preserve flowers and leaves?

When using this method, are the flowers hardened or do they become fragile as they dry?

Nice

Will the wax react badly with resin?

How Long Do The Flower's Last?

Great tutorial! Have you ever try waxing white daisies?Mine won't retain their white color and turned brown 2 days after dipping them into how wax. Any suggestion on how to preserve their color?

I wonder how it would work if you did this with a silica gel dried flower?

after the flower is dripped and dried how do you remove the white hardened wax between lots of the petels and even doẃn in the rose hip? i used hair dryer it didnt remove it all and bangēd up the outside petels .

How long do they last before rotting?

very nice project and expression. Want to know something? If we use the leaves or flowers covered with wax in epoxy projects, will the wax dissolve in a table, coffee table or other study? Does it cause problems in joining with epoxy? thank you

I did red roses and had the wax show, I did notice that another person had the same problem. My wax may have been too cool. I figured it was too hot. I will try the 100 degree thing and see if that works. I did use soy wax.

Hi there, I'm trying to collect some flowers and preserve them in a jar. Would this method be fine too? or could you recommend me some other method. Would these last longer than dried ones?

Could you use this method to create a flower crown?

Do you do the stem too

If I use silica gel to dry flowers and then take them same flowers and dip them in wax would this method still preserve them and make them last if I want to put them inside shadow box for a keepsake.

Good job Can u Pls xplain How you prepared The Wax In glass?? Pls mention The white powder on The bowl?!?

I've tried this multiple times now with red roses and everytime they come out super thick coated and dry white...i even went as far as buying a wax thermostat for making candles to ensure the was is only at 100 degrees and it still does it...has anyone been able to get this to work without ruining the flowers?

How long can it stay

How long does it last?? Does it continue to look like it does after a few days? I want to preserve flowers from my granny's funeral. What's the best technique for preserving flowers forever?? Besides drying them out, I have plenty like that. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hola q materiales ocupa para poderlo comprar y dónde lo consigo saludos y Gracias

how hot should it be when I put the flower into the wax?

If the waxed flowers are taken outside in the winter time (-10*C), would the wax crack and appear white? Have you ever done a test with your freezer? Just wondering because I'll be needing a bouquet in decembe.. Thanks

I just got some roses from my boyfriend a few days ago and I would love to do this. Only question is do you have to cut off the leaves?

Can you submuerge them in water ?

Is there a soy wax flake brand that’s recommended?

I used the soy wax today and I got it from amazon. I did it on a red rose and my rose turned waxy. What am I doing wrong? I need this to work for Mother's Day. It's a red rose with dry wax all over it

How long??? For 10 yrs??

Beautiful flowers!! Also, I love your shirt! Where is it from??

I am getting ready to do this but i have read all the comments and questions and I am wondering do you dip the stems and can you redo the process after 4-5 months

Hi thanks for sharing your video- i tried what you're doing with the wax - but after dipping the flowers and letting them dry- they turn completely yellow-brown! what am i doing wrong? how can this be avoided? thanks so much!

Can you do this with dead/wilted flowers.

Hi, can I dry the flowers with silica gel first then preserve them with soy wax? So that they can last longer?

Is soy wax biodegradable

I know you mentioned it extends the life by weeks but.. is there something you recommend to keep a rose looking like this for ever?

i tried it but the colour of my roses changed from red to pink after waxing...and it looked terrible :(

For how long can you preserve them like this? I would love to do some Rose domes

after you wax the flower, should the stemps stil be in water?

Do they last outside? Would love to try this on my grandmas grave.

What about the smell. I mean after wax how many days smell will remain in flower or u in rose.

Do you need to place the roses in silica gel before you do this?

Deveria passar para português.

Will it still smell good? Anyone know how the eternity rose companies make the roses still smells good?

my flowers turned white. tried food color but it just beaded and wouldn't mix together. what else can i do?
