Hang them upside down an let them dry out and keep them somewhere safe. Or some people
freeze-dry and place them in a glass or plastic display case. There are videos about it online.

Arrange the roses into a bouquet, holding them at the stem.
Turn them upside down. The flower part will be toward the floor.
Put a rubber band around the base of the stems.
Hang the flowers upside down from the rubber band and they will dry as a bouquet.
It will take a few weeks for the flowers to fully dry.
**You cannot arrange the flowers after they are dried because they will crack apart.**
When they are fully dried, you can display them as a dried arrangement in a vase. They will last for years! I have done this MANY times to preserve a Valentines Day or birthday arrangement. I still have dried roses from my daughters wedding 7 years ago!
