I would presume that they would dry in a de-hydrator like most everything else. You can give it a try if you have a de-hydrator. As kids we sandwiched leaves between 2 sheets of waxed paper by placing the waxed paper between 3 or 4 sheets of newsprint paper[that were blank] with the leaves in the middle & using a medium temperature iron to press them together; sometimes we would add peelings from crayons [like sharpening the crayons] & iron those together around the leaves for added color. Have FUN & experiment!
