  30. I've always wondered what the clear solution was that held the stems in place (I have a couple pre-made silk peony arrangements that sit this way. Thanks for the tips, great DIY project and it's generally fairly easy to find realistic looking silk hydrangeas. Your arrangement turned out beautiful! :)

  31. So simple and pretty. Love it.

  32. Great DIY! I love the idea of having real flowers 24/7 but it's just not practical and silk flowers give the effect without the upkeep!
