After treating the flowers with these chemicals, you would probably want to find a way to stiffen them in resin or something, though I'm not sure how all these different chemicals would react. Obviously, when you are dealing with chemicals of any type it's important to educate your self on any hazards and/or safety procedures. Good Luck!
