Pressing Flowers

I love to read books, and decided to make pressed flower bookmarks.  I took flower petals from the table, and sandwiched them between six pieces of newspaper. Then I put them into a spare telephone book and wrapped three rubber bands, evenly spaced around the book.  Five days later I changed any soiled papers and examined the flowers. You’re really not supposed to disturb the paper touching the flowers, but I just had to. They were so amazing!  Now I need to wait one to two more weeks. I can hardly wait.  I’ll make sure to share the results.

I’m so excited!
