Hmm see if you can get the flowers pressed into some artwork?

Answer 2

Your lucky you have yours mine got thrown out.

All I have is pictures.

Answer 3

put it in an arcrilic box

Answer 4

I keep mine in a silk drawstring bag.  I pulled off all of the pedals and I put the bag in my dresser drawer.  I just couldn't part with it.  

Answer 5

there are place you can take it to and they can preserve it and frame it or something so you can keep them forever

Answer 6

I saw a remodeling show once where they cut the flowers off the stems, and glued them around a wedding invitation in a picture frame - so then you have a nice copy of your wedding invite - surrounded by the flowers from your bridal bouquet.

Answer 7

Put it in a shadow box. I have seen it done and it's beautiful.

Answer 8

Mine's just hanging on the wall upside down. But you can put yours in a box frame and display it this way.

Answer 9

Can you press it between the pages of a big book that no one will read or open.....Like an old dictionary or encyclopedia.  Maybee you could take it apart and press it in a book and check on it in a few years.  Then....when the flowers are nice and flat you can layer them in a frame and hang them in the bedroom.
