They look as though they are some type of everlasting flower that has been dried and coloured Viv.

Welcome to the forum Viv04!
My guess would be some form of Strawflower.

Welcome from NE Wisconsin. I agree that it's a dyed dried flower of some type.

I'm thinking it might be Helichrysum, strawflower of some kind. We used to sow and dry them way back when dried flower arrangements were all the rage. Check it out on Wikipedia.
