Hydrangeas are as beautiful as they are simplistic. The large balls of delicate flowers quickly fill a vase or container to create a stunning accent for any room in the home. Are you looking for a new way to use silk hydrangeas throughout your home? Try out these unexpected ideas.
Under a Wall Mounted Television
Wall mounted televisions are great because that TV is up and tucked out of the way, but what are you to do with that odd space between the bottom of the television and the top of the entertainment center? Line up nice, low hydrangea plants under the television. Not only will they hide those unsightly cords, but also they will bring a soft, feminine touch to an otherwise hard, utilitarian area.
Dress Up Glass Jars
Instead of throwing away all those glass jars you have left over from pasta night, breathe new life into them with silk hydrangeas. You can leave the inside clear or paint the inside with acrylic craft paint. Because the silk flowers don’t require water your possibilities really are endless. Glass beads, buttons, wine corks or any other knick-knacks can fill the jars only to be topped off with this filling flower.
Tasty Centerpiece
Create an easy table centerpiece with your favorite treat, a large mouth vase or bowl, and a bunch of silk hydrangea stems. Lemons, limes, apples, and candies all make great vase filler for a kitchen or dining room. If you get hungry, just lift one out and have a delicious snack.
Can you think of a new and exciting way to use silk hydrangeas?
