Dress your Door

Each year during the summer months I get the privilege to pick and collect beautiful hydrangea’s from my neighbors property. This year I felt it was long overdue that I should repay my sweet friends with creating a wreath with drying the hydrangea’s.  I also was lucky enough to grab enough to make a smaller wreath arrangement for myself. 😉

What you will need:

1 branch twig vine from any craft store

1 pair of clippers

*optional – faux berry stems as seen in images

To make this wreath I cut the hydrangea to approx 5″ on the steam.

I than started to arrange each hydrangea in order of size and color going from darkest to lightest to create a ombre feel.

I stuck the stems in and twisted them around the back to secure.

I than decided to add some faux green berries I had lying around from a wreath that was falling apart to create  texture as well as interest.

Viola !

The best part about these wreaths is they will last all year round remaining the same in color. Happy picking!
