Fall Fun:
Preserving Leaves with Glycerin

Here are very simple instructions for making long-lasting, color-maintaining, preserved leaves using glycerin.

Place a small branch of fall leaves on several layers of newspapers. With a hammer tap the end of the stem until it is slightly crushed. Place the branch in a jar with one part glycerine to two parts water. Keep for 2 weeks, refilling the solution as needed. The leaves will be thicker to touch, colors will have changed and they are less likely to disintegrate or fade.
