Colorful decoration with dandelions
Would you like to add a few colorful accents with colored dandelions? As we have already explained, you need the dandelionscollect for preservation, even before they have opened. As long as they are in this condition, you can also color them. We will now explain how exactly:
- Insert wire through the stems and through to the flower.
- In a pot, mix water (just enough to completely submerge the flower) with thedesired amount of food coloring(You don't need to use it sparingly) and 2 to 3 tablespoons of vinegar.
- Boil the water and reduce the heat so that it just simmers.
- Dip the flowers into the water and hold for 5 to 7 seconds.
- Insert the flowers and wire into Styrofoam, floral foam or another suitable material. You can also place individual dandelions in a glass. Now leave the flowers for a few days so that they can open.
