Top 5 Flowers for Drying

Fall always sneaks in with its cooler mornings, busy school schedules, and the urge to make the house feel cozy again. But who has time to fuss with décor that only lasts a week? That’s where dried flowers shine. They’re beautiful, effortless, and stick around long after the pumpkin pie is gone.

Here are my top five favorites for drying and why they’re perfect for your kitchen table or entryway this season:

1. Strawflowers
Their petals already feel papery, which means when they dry, they look just as bright and cheerful. Perfect for adding a pop of color that won’t fade halfway through the season.

2. Larkspur
Tall and whimsical, larkspur adds movement and height to a dried bouquet. It’s the “ta-da” flower that makes your arrangement look designer without even trying.

3. Eucalyptus
The silvery-green leaves bring that fresh, clean spa vibe to your home. Bonus: it smells amazing and pairs well with pumpkins, candles, and all things fall.

4. Celosia
These bold, textural blooms bring in the rich colors of fall: burgundy, fiery orange, and golden yellow. Just one stem can make your bouquet feel extra special.

5. Statice
A quiet classic. Statice holds its color for months and fills in bouquets with tiny accents of purple, pink, or white. It’s the detail work that makes everything else shine.

🌿 Style Tip: Want instant cozy fall charm? Pop your dried bouquet into a ceramic crock, a vintage pitcher, or even a well-loved mason jar.

Dried flowers are like fall’s best kept secret: they don’t need water, they won’t wilt, and they make your space look cozy and intentional.
