    If you are growing hydrangea flowers, then you definitely should harvest a few to bring indoors to decorate your home.

    Late summer is often the perfect time, as they start to dry out and have a more papery texture (see image above). However, it's not that hard to dry hydrangea flowers any time of year, and though they may get a little papery or dusty after a while, they tend to last a long time.

    Even something as simple as a few dried hydrangea blooms in a wooden box with a few gourds and candles can make a stunning fall or Thanksgiving centerpiece with minimal effort.

    11 Hydrangea Decorating Ideas

    The following are some of my own hydrangea decor projects, along with a few of my blogger friends. Whether they are bouquets in your favorite vase displayed on the dining room table, or a beautiful wreath for your front porch, I hope they inspire you to create lots of great decorations with your own hydrangea flowers.
