Re-using a bouquet of flowers
All bouquets will last for about a week, beyond which the flowers will become limp.
Instead of throwing it away, think about transforming it into a potpourri, which you will use to scent any room or bathroom in your house.
The word potpourri itself originates from the French language "pot pourri" and means "rotten flower pot", thus indicating the possible reuse of flowers to beyond their short life!

Making a pot pourri
Take out the petals of the wilted flowers of your bouquet and spread them on a dry cloth, inside your house.
Leave them for a week or two until dry.
Do not add any scent or chemical or product, as the petals just need to dry up naturally.

Do not add any scent or chemical or product, as the petals just need to dry up naturally.
Once dry, remove them and put them in bowls or fabric bags so you can add a few drops of a scented oil from time to time. This provides a nice smell to your room or inside a cupboard.
Make sure not to use any water based scent, as the liquid should only consist of pure oil or essence, not to let the petals develop fungi or house bacteria.
It is indeed possible to combine flower petals with dried citrus fruits or other vegetals and herbs.
