Joanna....
your really into dried flowers and as fun and creative as it is there's always the great ole factory sense going all winter plus the visuals and fun creative things to do.
It's fun make swags for over the over kitchen windows from the hop vines with the beautiful hop cones 3-4"long attached. The leaves & cones- lime green, hold their color all winter.
Your pearly's are gorgeous. I can just smell all of them from here! Your kitchen window is glowing! All the hanging dried flowers brings back lots of wonderful memories.
I have even gone as far as blending straw flowers in my blender and gluing them on canvas in designs for wall pics and collages . A lil OCD!
in a good way.
The below dried floral arrangement grows bigger every year - pee gee hydrangeas, German baby breath, clipped pampas feathers, clipped dried porcupine grass, dried amacanthrius . Added dried butterflies & dried humming birds- I pick them up form the yard. My son says that's kind of morbid but I like them.
