My mom and I have a love affair with hydrangeas. They’re such incredible flowers; huge, colorful and finicky, yet oddly easy to arrange.

One of my favorite things to do when we have houseguests is to place fresh flowers in their room. To create this simple arrangement, I stripped the stems of leaves, removed the outer petals, and used a tutorial from Amy…
