Decorating with Flowers

It started off as just one wall in my old apartment, and when I moved out of there, I very carefully pried them off the drywall to transfer. They're all just stuck up with scotch tape, btw, usually two pieces. They stay up pretty well!
I kinda did them by color, but there was no hard pattern. Anyway







I did two sessions of summer classes at uni last summer, so I was on campus. They put a lot of money into landscaping for there only being 10% of the people around! I got a lot of daffodils this spring, but a lot of the spring flowers are hard to dry, since they hold so much moisture. I tried to do an iris but it just got nasty. Does anyone have any advice for drying flowers? The reason these are all upside down is because I don't have a lot of silica gel or sand (or patience) to dry them, so I hang them upside down in hopes that the heads won't bow down that way, and any color will seep to the bottom.
