Decorating with White Hydrangeas – My Favorite Flower!
An arrangement I did last spring with white hydrangeas and seeded eucalyptus in a vintage ironstone pitcher.
Seriously?! Does it get any lovelier than this? I adore the white hydrangeas against the old wooden box. Via Debra Hall Lifestyle.

Absolute crusty urn perfection! Via Atelier de Campagne.
Love them mixed with other white flowers. Via Pottery Barn.

See what I mean? They look good with everything, and in anything! From an old crusty urn or bucket, to a crystal vase and everything in between. Not just gorgeous, but versatile, too. For me, they are the ultimate flower!
And in case you’re looking for some unique containers for your hydrangeas (or any other flowers!) I’ve gathered some of my favorites below. From buckets, to my favorite glass vases, to some blue and white pottery, there are so many wonderful options for showcasing these gorgeous flowers!

I love flowers too and yours are so gorgeous! Thanks for the inspiration.
I, too, love hydrangeas! We have over 70 varieties and I love the stages of each one. We are having to downsize and will be leaving them behind due to health reasons. It really saddens me. I have made 2 pinterest boards so I can go back and vicariously enjoy my gardens and hydrangeas in future years. One is ” The house I”ll be Sad To Leave”, and the other is “I Love the Flowers and Creatures in my Garden”. T
Hello Sheila! Fresh hydrangeas are so beautiful and they are lovely in all your containers. Do you have tips for drying them and keeping their color?
Hello there and thanks for stopping by! I don’t dry the white ones but I did used to dry the blue all the time. I simply clipped them and kept them in water to enjoy in the house. Once they started fading (but before they totally wilt) I would remove them from the water and hang them upside down for a few days in a cool, dry room. That’s it! Then you can enjoy gorgeous dried hydrangeas for quite awhile!
Thanks for your kind words!

I, too, love hydrangeas, and have over 70 varieties. They are so beautiful at every stage. Sadly we are having to downsize due to health problems and leave them behind. I have made 2 pinterest boards so I can continue to enjoy them. One is “The House I’ll be Sad to Leave.”. The other is ” I I love the Flowers and Creatures in my Garden. ” This way I can enjoy them again and again!
Aww Ruth, I’m so sorry about you having to leave your beloved hydrangeas behind. I love them so much as well, and I’m sure you miss them! But how wonderful that Pinterest is keeping that love alive for you!! I’ll be sure to check out your boards!
Thanks so much for stopping by, and for taking the time to write!

Nice decorations and your florals are all beautiful!
When you grow them, do they stay white or change like the blue to pink ones do?
No, they stay white. Only the blue ones have the power to change due to the soil content.
Thanks for stopping by!
I could not agree more! I love white and green in the garden and containers, and hydrangeas are a favorite!
I’m right there with you! I changed my garden to white and green only a few years ago and I love it!
Thanks for stopping by!
