My Therapy. I spend hours in my garden without even realizing it. Grateful! Honestly this is where my mind just clears. Fall is my favorite time of the year to preserve my hydrangeas. I’ll be making a pretty bouquets for my home and friends. How to preserve Hydrangeas: 1. Cut at the right time. Wait until blooms feel papery and mature on the shrub. 2. Air dry. Remove leaves, place stems in a vase with just a few inches of water, and let them dry naturally as the water evaporates. Love to decorate my home with preserved hydrangeas, especially in the fall. They also look beautiful as centerpieces, wreaths and more. Plus, they last over a year! LTKHome LTKSeasonal LTKPetite
