I love hydrangeas and they are in my top 3 of favorite flowers. I showed you my hydrangea urn recently and today I wanted to show you a hydrangea wreath I made. The urn holds a real hydrangea but the wreath is made with faux florals.
I looked on Pinterest for different ways of doing hydrangea wreaths and found these that I really liked.
No source; just a picture
I liked the ones that incorporated the leaves into the wreath as well. I used a wire wreath form that I already had. I bought the individual stems of hydrangeas from Hobby Lobby when they were on sale 50% off; I bought three of the cream and three of the purple.
I wired the flowers on and tucked the leaves in among the wire of the wreath base. This will make it easy to change up or take apart if I decide to do that.
I made a bow out of some burlap ribbon and wired that on, too.
I love the way it turned out and I think it ties in nicely with the urn that is off to the side of the door. I think this will bring me through to Fall quite nicely.

ReplyDeleteMornin' Kathy! I saw you visiting Marty and decided to pop over to see what you have been doing. I love hydrangeas, too....well, really who doesn't? Your wreath is lovely! I have two tiny little bushes that I crave to dry the flowers off of but, never have any luck!!! :(
ReplyDeleteI have some faux white ones accenting my fireplace in baskets and a vase. They're keeping me content for now!
