Silica gel sand for drying flowers
Silica gel sand is a much finer desiccant than I had used before for drying flowers. After my recent post about trying to dry flowers using silica gel beads, a lovely lady contacted me via Twitter with details of where to buy Petalcraft sand online.
Purpose-made dried flower desiccant from Petalcraft

It is about the same crystal size as granulated sugar, and I have already been experimenting with it, but more of that in a later post!
