What to do with dried rose petals

Roses can be said to be the most direct and commonly used item for couples to express love. However, although roses are beautiful, they are only beautiful at the time. After a few days, no matter how carefully they are cared for, they will dry up and gradually wither. Some people think it is a pity to throw them away, so they will collect the dried rose petals so that they can be preserved for a long time after they are dried. But what can you do with dried rose petals?

It can whiten and moisturize the skin, and the effect is very good. Moreover, after the rose petals are spread out and dried naturally, they can be preserved for a long time.

Sachet. Allow the rose petals to air dry. Purchase a small mesh or linen bag to put the rose petals in.

Once it's done, you can put it in a cabinet or in the car.

Rose cake. Wash the rose petals, put them into a bowl together with the flour and sugar, and then add the milk little by little. Use chopsticks to stir into a batter.
