In P. Allen's newsletter, here, he talks about making rose petal beads. I have never done this, but it sounds interesting. I will have to wait for a few months before I have any rose petals to work with, though. Mr. Allen has a simple "recipe" to make these beads. There are other recipes that have binders and rose oil included, but that doesn't seem to be necessary. I did read where the beads turn out black if you use an iron pan to cook the petals in, and they will be slightly lighter in color if cooked in an enamel pan.
