Fun In The Making
Looking for lots of crafts made from recycled materials? You’ve come to the right place. I go beyond soup can pencil holders here. It is all about greening up your crafting and moving toward a more sustainable way of living. This site is full of eco-friendly crafts for children and adults. Making use (re-use really) of otherwise unwanted materials is good for the pocketbook and good for the environment.

Bringing The Garden Indoors: White Hydrangea Flowers
Posted Jul 16, 08 -Filed Under Eco-friendly living ideas, Uncategorized, garden (gardening info and eco-friendly project ideas), home décor (recycle and upcycle)
Happenings At Our House: July
This morning when I was outside checking for squash and zucchini to harvest, I took time to cut some flowers off my hydrangea bush nearby. This hydrangea that I planted a year or so ago is looking great. No shortage of blooms on it. I can’t locate the tag I got with it but I think I’ve identified it as Hydrangea paniculata. It is so nice to gather a bouquet of flowers that are as clean and fresh as a summer’s day. Corny but true. When landscaping, don’t overlook white flowering plants or underestimate the beauty they add.

loved the picture of white hydrangea..they are my favorite flower although i have had such trouble drying them….they seem to droop in the vase as the water dries up…any suggestions would be appreciated..thanks
The white hydrangeas don’t seem to dry well unlike other hydrangeas. I’m going to try drying some in a desiccant (silica gel: I have some that looks like fine whitish sand). I’ll let you know how it turns out.
