Petals Petals Everywhere

August 22nd, 2006 @ 9:12 am by Mrs. Caterpillar

My freeze-dried petals arrived from Flyboy Naturals lightning quick. I think I placed the order on a Wednesday, and had them in my cone-y hands by Friday.

I had my doubts, but they’re pretty perfect. They’re oddly supple, not dry and crackly like I thought they would be, and the colors are surprisingly vibrant. They even smell nice.

So, I’m all about the freeze-dried now.

Thanks for posting! After the first time you posted about them, I decided to use them to spice up my plain white linens. I can’t wait!
