Hydrangeas are large and billowy and vary in color greatly.
A large and flamboyant flower, the hydrangea blooms from a bush of the same name. The large clusters of the bell-shaped blossoms of the hydrangea make beautiful additions to a wedding bouquet or a casual bouquet for another type of event. Making a hydrangea bouquet at home offers you the ability to experiment with the varying colors of the flower while accenting it with a plethora of other flora and foliage. You can either make use of your garden hydrangeas or purchase silk hydrangea flowers for this craft.
Instructions
1. Grasp the hydrangeas in your hand, making a fist around the stems, or branch clippings, of the blossoms.
2. Insert the Gerber daisies into your hand, placing them around the two hydrangea flowers. Place one of the daisies between the two hydrangeas as well.
3. Bind the center of the stems of the flowers together using the rubber band.
4. Snip the very bottoms of the stems to make them even with one another. Make sure the stems are no shorter than 7 inches after cutting them to be even.
5. Tie the decorative silk ribbon around the rubber band that you use to bind the flowers together. Tie the ribbon into a simple bow to embellish the bouquet while concealing the rubber band.
