Old Homcoming Mums...?

Question

I just graduated high school and I have several homecoming mums in my closet... I really only cherish two of them (one was very expensive, and the other one was from my senior year and my boyfriend and I made ours together and they are awesome!). Anyway, I don't really know what to do with them all. They are sort of all just in a gigantic box and my senior year one is pinned onto my wall.

Does anyone know or have any creative solutions as to what to do with high school mums that, essentially, will never really be used again? Variety in answers would be fantastic, Thanks

Answer 1

You could make a dried flower arrangement from them, tie w/ribbons and put in a pretty cup or container.  I've seen people use dried roses as curtain tie-back decorations (something else actually holds the curtain back, the rose is just tacked on).  Put them up on a bulletin board or your dressing table mirror.  Just keep them out of direct sunlight, or the colors will fade.
