Crafting with dried flowers

This definitely isn't a craft blog. I'm not a crafty person. But if I find something interesting, that works for us, I will share it. You are guaranteed it will be easy.

I recently wrote this post about the flower press and now we have some excess dried flowers. With some clean, empty jars and some glue we used our dried flowers to make some lovely gifts.

We use Mod Podge glue because it gives a nice glossy finish. When dried the jars can be used as candle holders, pencil holders, vases... anything really.

We roll our own beeswax candles which is easy even for a young child. If you haven't used beeswax candles before, I highly recommend it, the aroma is WONDERFUL.

And they look great at night or at the dinner table.
