Dried flowers can add a beautiful spring-like touch to your lake home, even when the weather hasn\u2019t quite caught up yet. It would help if you didn\u2019t have to compromise when it comes to spring florals, and by drying your flowers and stems, you don\u2019t have to sacrifice your aesthetic.

Once you\u2019ve selected the flowers and branches you\u2019d like to dry, all you need is some string or twine, basic hairspray, and a place to hang your flowers for drying. With twine, tie your flowers and branches together into a bunch at the base of the stems. Make sure the bundle is tight. Don\u2019t hesitate to separate the florals you\u2019re using into multiple bundles (or even dry each individually) to reduce any crowding of your blooms. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/FloretBlog-4V3A0227-640x427-1.jpg\" alt=\"hanging flowers to dry - lake house decorating ideas\" class=\"wp-image-12394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/FloretBlog-4V3A0227-640x427-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/FloretBlog-4V3A0227-640x427-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.floretflowers.com\/discovering-dried-flowers\/\">Floret<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> Next, find a place out of the way in your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/\">lake home<\/a> to hang your bunches. Your flowers should dry at room temperature, in a shaded, dry place, out of the way of the elements. Coat hooks or an unused closet can be an ideal location. Once you hang your florals (stems facing up, blooms facing down), they should remain for 12 days to dry properly. At the end of the 12-day drying period, take down your bunches to appreciate how they\u2019ve changed during the drying process. Before you do anything else, it\u2019s best to spray them from 6 feet away with basic non-toxic hairspray to keep them looking great for as long as possible. Give them a quick spray outside and let them sit for two hours &#8211; then you are ready to use them as you wish! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-presenting-your-dried-blooms-in-your-lake-home\">Presenting Your Dried Blooms in Your Lake Home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"584\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/fullreso-1-2.jpg\" alt=\"dried florals wedding bouquet living room decor - lake house decorating ideas\" class=\"wp-image-12411\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/fullreso-1-2.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/fullreso-1-2-257x300.jpg 257w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stylemepretty.com\/vault\/image\/849180\">Emily Scannell<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many ways to show off your dried flowers in your home.
