Metodo 3 - Glicerina

Choose bright leaves. If leaves have a branch crushed the beginning of the stick with a hammer.
You will need vegetable glycerin which can be bought in supermarkets or craft stores.
Mix 530 ml (17 ounces) of liquid vegetable glycerine, with 2 liters (1/2 gallon) of water in a bucket.
Leaves the leaves into the mixture, so that the leaves will absorb glycerine for 3-5 days. If they float, use a plate to keep them down ;).

*** The leaves will keep their BRIGHT color forever.
