Let roses harden 20 minutes or longer. For waxing leaves, hold each cluster with tongs and dip into warm wax. Lay flat on wax paper until hardened or about 3 minutes. Place dried waxed flowers and leaves in an arrangement in your selected basket or place them in the wicker slots for a more decorative approach. The best roses to use are pink, yellow and red.
White roses tend to get faded after several hours.
The roses will last from 7 to 14 days. Care For Waxed Flowers Display in a cool location, out of direct sunlight and away from air vents. Avoid excessively hot or cold areas. Check water level daily to make sure container is full and add warm water as needed and a flower preservative. Remove damaged or dying foliage or flowers.
