Making dried hydrangea flowers, learning from mistakes

This is Kubota from Adan Staff.

We had so many hydrangeas blooming at home this year that I decided to try my hand at making dried flowers!

First, I tried this one because the ones I had arranged as cut flowers were wilting.

I hung it in my room and this is what it looked like the next day: ......

It's a huge failure!

It was too sad looking.

So, with the help of the Internet, I looked into making dried hydrangea flowers.

Then he said, "The ones that are just about dead, with a little brownish flower mixed in are good.

I waited a little, and when the color was getting a little lighter and brownish, I decided to mow it down as well as prune it.

We have a lot of them, so we hang them on the balcony.

The weather may just be nice and cloudy or rainy with little sunshine.

And here is what I dried for about 4 days.

......... failed again.

But some of them were successful!

Beautiful!

I took this photo on the same day, but I didn't realize how much individual differences could appear...

Our hydrangea bloomed both purple and blue, but the purple failed at every turn,

It has turned brown like the former. Does it have anything to do with the color? It's a mystery...

And this beautifully successful blue dried flower, but I was feeling good about it and hung it up for one more day...

The sunlight has faded the color (T_T).

So that's why everyone hung them indoors in the dry production process.

Apparently, dried flowers should not be "exposed to sunlight.
