It was recently my parents 20th anniversary, & we are making them a scrapbook, but the flowers are moldy.?

So how do we get rid of the mold from these flowers, so we can use them in the scrapbook? Thanks .

1. are the flowers already dried? If so you will not be able to use them. If the flowers have mold on them and you still want to dry them you can wash them in a very diluted bleach solution and then rinse. You would then want to use a microwave or desiccant drying method to really eliminate the moister quickly and prevent the mold from returning. It may be better to get new flowers that are the same type, although they won't be the original ones, you will get a better finished product.
2. Most moldy surfaces are cleared by adding bleach to them. If your flowers are old and dried, throw them away.
