Simple Hydrangea Centerpiece

Creating a simple hydrangea arrangement in a small wooden crate can be a lovely and charming addition to your decor.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you create one:

Materials Needed

• Small wooden crate (see these wooden crates for ideas)
• Floral foam or a small vase that fits inside the crate
• Hydrangea stems (cut to desired length – I prefer blue hydrangeas or cream hydrangeas)
• Pruning shears or a sharp knife
• Water
• Optional: Foliage or greenery for fillers

My thrift store crate was originally green but I wanted a pop of red so I spray painted it!

Step 1: Wipe Crate Clean

Clean crate with warm water and let dry before adding spray paint

Step 2: Spray Paint Wooden Crate

Spray paint the wooden crate with 2 coats, leaving ample time in between coats to dry

Step 3: Fill Small Vases With Hydrangeas

I filled two small vases with hydrangeas and added additional greens to create a full lush arrangement

Hydrangea Arrangement Ideas

Hydrangea centerpiece ideas are endless but a few of my favorite ideas are:

1. Mason jar with twine around the neck of the jar complete with cut hydrangeas
2. Vintage tea cups or small vases filled with hydrangeas
3. Floating blue and white hydrangea heads in decorative bowl filled with water
4. Wooden crate or small basket filled with hydrangeas
5. Tall vase filled with large flowing hydrangea roses

This hydrangea floral arrangement is so easy and looks amazing! Not bad for a free little wooden box and a can of spray paint, right?
