My grandmother and also my best friend used to save all their dried cut rose petals in small crockery pots called "beau pots". I used to save them in large containers like what cat food comes in or large pretzel or cheese balls plastic jars. If the petals are completely dried out, gently place them in air tight containers then use as you wish for potpourri etc
There are some great ideas here:

Hi Alitita, we spray ours with clear lacquer once they've dried out a little (about 2 weeks). You can also use hairspray.
Tie a ribbon around them and hang upside down in a cool, dry area out of direct light.
