What to do with a pressed white rose?

Hello, I'm not sure if this is the correct category. I have a white rose, from my father-in-law's funeral, that I'm pressing. I'm not really sure what to do with it when I'm done. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

What to do with a pressed white rose?
frame it in a small shadow box on a piece of velvet, along with any type of announcements from the funeral. a thoughtful gesture would be to present it to your husband or mother-in-law in the near future.
Reply:Store it in a waterproof plastic envelope AFTER you are sure it is completely dried. Once you have pressed it you need to keep it out of moisture to keep it preserved. Also, white flowers get yellow in the light, keep it out of direct light. You might want to include it in a book of remembrance, album, or scrapbook.
Reply:After it is dry, you can leave it in the book, or frame it.
Reply:might be nice to put it in small shadow box with a picture of your father-in-law and maybe some other momentous of him that you may have.
Reply:i would line a shadow box with a gorgeous paper and then add the rose and a photo
