2. Choose your container. A plastic storage container or Tupperware works perfectly. If you live in a very humid area, choose an airtight container to protect flowers from excessive moisture.
3. Add filler – I use packing peanuts, but crinkled paper or tissue would work as well.
4. Secret ingredient Place a few Silica Gel Packs in the container with flowers, just make sure to choose food-grade packets. I really like this Reusable Silica Gel Packs https://amzn.to/3fX9YiO
