Preserving Foliage with Glycerin
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 жов 2024
- Welcome Friends to my little corner of New England where I am wishing there was some way to preserve New England's Fall Foliage. In today's video, I show you a way that we can preserve just a bit of it and enjoy it in our Home Decor. I also find some new "friends" at a New England Fall Festival. Thank you so much for joining me today, and let me know if you decide to try this preservation method.

Carla, thank you for another enjoyable video. You have great ideas, and you offered me 12:54 minutes today of escape from the city to appreciate the New England experience. What a beautiful arrangement of autumn leaves. I "gasped" when I saw you dip your engagement ring into the glycerin solution. Laugh-out-loud. Anyway, I am sure it survived. The landscapes and music selections are the best, not to mention your beautiful home. Looking forward to next week's project and adventure. Have a happy Sunday and a good week ahead. God bless, Robert.
Thank you Robert! Oh, my ring is fine, it hasn't been off my finger since we got married, but I'm glad it gave you a chuckle!! lol. Happy Sunday!
@@mynewenglandstory Thank you, Carla. I am impressed that you respond to every comment. It speaks volumes about your caring and thoughtful nature. Robert
I love the arrangement you made with your leaves! That is such a pretty pitcher you used for your arrangement!🍁🍁
Thank you so much Deborah! Have a beautiful Sunday.
Hi Carla, such a great project! Your arrangements look so pretty and Autumnal. Looking forward to hearing more about you possibly having quails. Have a wonderful week x
Thank you so much Kareema. Weren't those quails cute? Have a beautiful week my friend.
Carla, you are so creative. I would have no idea what to do with leaves. Your arrangements turned out beautifully.❤
Thank you so much!
Wonderful video, Carla, the leaves are beautiful! Have a great week.
Thank you! You too Marianne!!
I would love to have some of the quail eggs. I would save them for a cloche. I stored a wreath once not knowing it had nest with eggs in it. After months it had mummified, I guess. Years old and still beautiful!! Seems like you should be able to preserve entire limbs the same as leaves. I enjoy your calm and beautiful videos.
How pretty they would be under a Cloche! Thank you for watching Ann.
Love your leaf arrangement and really love the pitcher. This is a new technique for me, I didn’t know about. TFS this a great video 🍂 🍁
Thank you Anne. Yes, a new technique for me also and I loved the outcome.
I saw on Garden answer - Laura’s mom did glycerin and preserved branches of leaves. Used boiling water with the glycerin and it really preserve the whole branch.
Just stood the branches in the liquid for several days.
Oh Wow, so she did not submerge the leaves? I will have to look up that Video, that would be so much easier, thank you!
@@mynewenglandstory just stood the branches and they soaked it up. I saw it in one of the videos a week ago.
@@barbaracarlson1331 I will go watch, thank you Barbara.
What a gorgeous arrangement you made with the leaves and flowers! I will be curious to know how long they last, because if there is one thing that I am surrounded by, it is leaves, LOL! Have a wonderful weekend. 🧡🤎💛
Thank you Debbie. So far, so good and it has been a week. I have more soaking because I would like to add. more to my arrangement. Happy Sunday!
Very informative, thank you for sharing. Will have to try to preserve some leaves. They look lovely in your arrangements!
@@christinecook377 Thank you Christine!
Great idea. Thanks for sharing. I may try with some Michigan maple leaves.
Yay, have fun Sue!
Love what you did fall is a beautiful time of the year happy fall from canada
Thank you Pat, Happy Fall!
Love what you created.
Thank you Barbara!
The glycerin technique is new to me, so thanks for demonstrating! They turned out lovely for your decorating. Great idea! When I was a kid, I pressed leaves and flowers between wax paper, like you mentioned. Don't know a thing about raising Quail, but their eggs are so darn cute! My daughter and son-in-law have had 6 chickens for a couple years now so I have a steady supply of super fresh eggs....dark brown, light brown, and light blue from their different hens. :)
Oh it sounds like your Daughter has Araucana chickens, one of my favorite! I may try evergreen in the glycerin next...wish me luck.
You might want to watch the video that Floer Hill Farm just posted titled maybe no for me. All about raising quail. Very interesting. You might just want to stick with what you know if chickens. Either way good luck
Thank you, I will look up Floer Hill Farm. Have a great Sunday!

I have never heard of this technique. Please let us know how long they end up lasting.
