Last night
Did you ever tint your daisies or Queen Anne's lace by adding food coloring to their water? I did this every year when I was a kid. My mom must have showed me how to do this.
When my daughter was little we did this too, and I think she was pretty impressed-and she was alway pretty hard to impress.
So here's what you do:
Take a pair of scissors outside with you.
Find a patch of weeds daisies or Queen Anne's lace.
Cut a nice, little bunch.
Bring in the house, find a clear glass, or vase, or little milk bottle.
Fill with water and then add a nice squirt of food coloring.
Add your weeds wildflowers.
Leave and come back a few hours later to witness the magic!

Aww-I did the Queen Anne's lace, but never daisies. I'll have to try that. Very pretty.
Hummmm... I did this with the daisies, but it did not work....I guess my daisies are not magic...:~(
Oh know-it didn't work? I used a healthy squirt of food coloring. Sorry it didn't work for you. Mine are still getting bluer-guess they are magic.☺
This is a great idea. I have never tried it but I am going to. Thanks for the tip.
I see anonymous spelled no wrong in the third comment. Oh wait-that was me! Daaaaaaaa
I added lots more food coloring, no magic.!!... so I took them and dunk them...now fake magic...or should I say cheating magic?
and they have lasted for many, many days...
