Pressing flowers

What you need: 

newspapers, 

flowers, 

heavy books

Put the flowers onto a sheet of newspaper. 

The blossoms need to be open.

Put another sheet of newspaper on top. 

Then put a lot of heavy books onto the newspaper. 

The heavier the books are, the better the flowers will be pressed.

There are also flower presses that you can buy.
After about two weeks, the flowers are pressed and dry. 

You can remove them carefully from the newspaper sheets.
