You will need:

Instructions for you:
1. Dry some nice, fresh and open blossoms using the traditional air-drying method or else use the microwave.
2. Wash the rock you have selected thoroughly.
3. Once the rock is clear coat it with a layer of decoupage solution.
4. Now before the solution gets dried place an assorted collection of flowers and leaves on a flat surface of the rock.
5. Now again put another coating of decoupage solution on the flowers and foliage and leave it to dry.
6. As the rock is about to dry completely cover it with a few more coats of the solution. But between each of the coats don’t forget to carry individual processes of drying.
Once the rock is finally dried your dried flower paper weight is ready. Gift it to any one and we assure you a hearty appreciation.
