~My Wendy Addison Crown & Hydrangeas~

I love my Wendy Addison crown. 
I added some flowers and pearls to it just for fun.
I have it on my mannequin right now for the holidays coming up. 
It gives the living room a
 little whimsy to dream in.
Some glitter garland to go around the shoulders.
I collected hydrangeas today in the garden and thought they might dry nicely inside the mannequin. They look so pretty and have that fall look to them.
I decided to put them all the way up because it looks like it's a hydrangea dress.
We'll see how well they dry there.
A little fall look in unexpected places.

    Great crown! I have a small collection of crowns due to the fact that I am the queen of my castle. I'm loving the hydrangeas in your fabulous mannequin. I've found that drying hydrangeas can be "iffy"...some of them do great and some of them just shrivel up even if they are from the same plant and same drying technique. I saw your post over at "Treasure Hunt Thursday".
