Does anyone know how to die an allready bloomed lily green?

Question

i would like to put a green lily in my hair for St. Patricks day and i was wondering if anyone knew how to turn a white lily green. I know i can put one in green food coloring but i dont know when to put it in and how long it needs to be in there

Thanks

Answer 1

I used to teach and we'd do that with carnations - I think you need 2 or 3 days if I remember right. since St. Pat's is tomorrow I would call some florists and see if they have a flower safe paint spray....or, go to a hobby/craft store and buy spray paint knowing the flower will die. They have "tie die" spray paint in the fabric sections....or I have seen some cake decorating spray paint too..

good luck!

Answer 2

You can probably find a fake one at a craft store.
For future reference, just put food coloring in the vase with the flower and the flower will turn whatever color the water is. It does take a few days though.

Answer 3

Craft stores have floral paint in spray cans... you can just take the flower anfd spray away.....

Too late for this year but you can always do it next year.
