Dale Rohman, "America's Flower Man," shows how to make and use flower-drying racks as decorative furnishings
(see photo at right).
Materials:
corkscrew willow (cut live from your backyard or get from florist--do not use dried willow from the craft store)
covered wire
Steps:
- Form the frame of the rack by attaching branches of willow together with covered wire (figure A).
- Place a couple of branches across the middle of the frame, attaching them to the ends with wire (figure B).
- Weave more branches of willow in and out of the branches that are already attached (figure C).
- Tie flowers onto the rack for drying or for decoration (figure D).
