A collage of dried flower crafts including sachets, herbariums, handmade paper, and wall decor.

Creating gifts and home decor with flowers is a huge passion of mine. I've made many items on this blog with dried flowers. Sometimes I'll hang them in the basement to dry, or I'll let a vase of flowers dry naturally by not refilling the water. Their innate beauty goes a long way in making the project a winner by its own nature.

Not to be confused with pressed flowers. If you have a flower press, you may enjoy these pressed flower crafts and ideas.

Today, I've listed several of those projects and sprinkled in a few of my fellow talented blogger friends for even more dried flower craftiness.
