How long did you hang your bouquet to dry?

Mine's been hanging for 2 months, and I think it looks totally dry, but how can I tell for sure? The stems are wrapped in the ribbon.

Mine took a few mths - just make sure the middle of the flowers are dry - that area took the longest for me.

My florist recommended we saw off the bottom of the bouquet that was wrapped in ribbon to expose the ends of the stems. Otherwise it can rot and will not dry properly. once we did that, i think it took a couple of months.

Ok, thanks! I'll have to unwrap the stems and cut them down. Hopefully it's not too late!
