Cathy, years ago I preserved fall colored leaves, from Michigan, for my stepmom in Texas to display in her classroom. Found a bunch of great leaves and dipped them in paraffin wax. Worked like a charm and she used them for several years.

I do my leaves the old fashioned way ... place them between two sheets of wax paper (like a sandwich), then simply iron them. You can also dip them in paraffin wax.

that's a great tip Elaine!

Hi Cathy, I use my microwave to dry and preserve all kinds of different things. My Mother taught me. Here's a link I found. Please let me know what you think.
