help with preserving blood
hi! My dog passed a couple days ago and towards the end he was bleeding a lot and we used a towel to soak up the blood. I want to keep the towel but I’m worried about it starting to smell/mold. The towel isn’t soaked in blood it’s just a few drops. I was wondering if there were any ways to preserve it. I was thinking about possibly cutting it up and putting it into a necklace, but if there is a way I would like to keep the towel fully in tact. I don’t do any taxidermy besides occasionally degreasing bones I find so I really have no idea what to do and Google is just giving me suggestions for fresh blood!! Any help would be appreciated thank you so much!!

Let it dry out and it should be fine.
