Three Easy Steps
1. Fill an ice cube tray half way with water. Freeze
2. Place one rose petal on each cube.
3. Pour one teaspoon of water over each petal. Freeze again.
It's that simple! Here is a quick tutorial.

You could also opt to freeze the entire rose head like the photo below. Spray roses would work perfect since they are a bit smaller in size. Here's another tutorial.

  7. Great idea!I like the iced rose. Just don't use glass containers, the water molecules expands with freezing, it can cause the glass just broken. Thank you for sharing!

  8. Please make sure they are organic roses, you definitely don't want to serve pesticides, (unregulated & undisclosed,) at your party/wedding.
