Hi. I was wondering how long did the branches last. I’m considering trying this later in the year

Mine are already bronzy brown when I took them off the tree. So can I just use them for a decorative piece with using that process?

[@youngblooms]

I would say yes! 👍

This is very interesting. Definately going to try it. Do you know if it also works on other type of leaves?

[@youngblooms]

I'm not sure what other types of greenery it would work on, if you do experiment then let me know how you get on.
