Question on how to preserve?

[aunt lissa]

I recieved this most beautiful angel ornament from Tiggerlover in the Ornament exchange and I was wondering if anyone knew how I could preserve it thru the years so it doesn't get ruined. This angel is made of leaves and twigs. I'm posting a picture in hopes it will help for someone to tell me how to preserve this. I love this angel and I don't want anything ever to happen to it!!!

Thank-you for any and all help!

Can you see it now?

I can see it. It's very beautiful. I don't have any tips for you though. Sorry.

 

[tkyes]

yep, I can see it now.

For starters I would suggest storing it in a box after Christmas to keep it from getting damaged.

Are you asking how to preserve the actual leaves though?

I don't know how they do that with flowers - someone here should.

Some help I am, huh?

It's very pretty!

We have a twig ornament... no leaves though... from Pikes Peak. To make sure it survives the attic, I wrap it loosely in tissue paper or bubble wrap, then it goes into a box so nothing can crush it.

We bought it 8 or 9 years ago and it still looks like new.

Maybe this will work for you, too.
