HOW TO MAKE A GARLAND | dried flower garland for fall home decor | floral design tutorial

Do you struggle saying goodbye to your beautiful summer blooms? Do you cut them in their prime with the best intentions, hang them up to dry, swear you're going to make something with them...and then never follow through? ME TOO. In this video, I'll take some of the items I dried (hydrangea! artemisia! Kent Beauty oregano! sea oats!) and teach you how to create a lovely, gardeny fall garland.
Use it as a table centerpiece, a mantelpiece adornment, or drape it over a doorway--it's the perfect way to enjoy the last bit of your favorite summer garden plants, and the perfect transition piece before you haul the Christmas garlands out after Thanksgiving.

Beautiful.,, I love working with dried flowers and a gorgeous swag like this inspires me to get back to that this year. Have some gorgeous Limelight Hydrangeas that would look incredible. Thanks for reminding me how much I love arranging flowers. 🎉

Yay for working with flowers! Thank you for watching and your kind comments! 🥰 limelights are one of my favorites too ☺️

I love this! As you know, I've been wanting to dry flowers, I think I'll make it a priority next year and then fill the house with flowers all year long! ❤

Thank you Jodie! How fun would that be? It’s amazing how long they retain their color indoors.

So beautiful Judie! Thanks for this tutorial as I’m in charge of the centerpiece at my sisters house for a 10’ table. I probably don’t have enough dried elements but will use live stuff too! Happy Thanksgiving!🦃🍽🍁

What a beautiful combination of colours and flowers. I have dried flowers hanging from every place in my home so I think I will try to make one of these garlands. Thank you for easy to follow and rather relaxing tutorial.
Ps Can you tell me again what those pink flowers were (oregano). I am in the UK, not sure if I have seen them but they are lovely.

Thank you for watching and subscribing Lucy! I am contemplating putting dried flowers on my Christmas tree this year too. I have dried limelight hydrangeas as big as my head!😂
