I saw the most amazing photograph of a Hydrangea today on Explore, of course i faved it, it inspired me to have a go, just can't get it perfectly.
Hydrangea is a genus of 70-75 species of flowering plants native to southern and eastern Asia and the Americas. By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably China, Japan, and Korea
When I walk to my library I pass this lovely hydrangea bush that I always admire. It is located outside someone's fence so I decided it was legal to help myself to the flowers in the fall when they started to turn. I was still nervous about being "caught", so I went there after dark and snapped off a few branches! I am pleased that they have dried very nicely!
i am still not done with them...
i would like to finish them with some varnish and add some pin/magnet to be possible to wear them, but i haven't any magnets/pins, neither varnish :) but there are some days left till the Christmas, hope is still alive... :)
from 5x5 cm squares of nicely patterned paper originally proposed as paper for 1000 cranes, but some people know, that I am not so good in folding cranes... :)

Hydrangea, the name, comes from the Greek words "hydro" or water, and "angeion," or vase = water vase, they prefer a lot of water.
A very ancient plant, found in fossils going back thousands of years.
In most species the flowers are white, but in some species (notably H. macrophylla), they are blue, red, pink, light purple, or dark purple.
In these species the colour is affected by the presence of aluminium ions which are available or tied up depending upon the soil’s pH content.
For H. macrophylla and H. serrata cultivars, the flower colour can be determined by the relative acidity of the soil: an acidic soil (pH below 7), will have available aluminium ions and typically produce flowers that are blue to purple, whereas an alkaline soil (pH above 7) will tie up aluminium ions and result in pink or red flowers.
I wish you all the very best and thank you for all your kind words, time, comments, likes and faves.
Very much appreciated. M, (*_*)

This hydrangea was very hard hit by the long cold winter, dying back almost completely and then coming back from the roots. I thought I wouldn't get any blooms at all this year, but there is just one. What a beauty it is.
=Japanese Art Craft=
A hydrangea is a flower which represents the Japanese early summer.
The back of the flower has a tiny bag. So in them you can put fragrance or jewelry etc...
The material is called Chirimen, a special crepe a little heavier than normal fabric used in making Kimono.
