LOVE the acorn vase in Winter Flower Arranging

When gathering seeds in the fall , save some seed heads; they make nice dried arrangements. If you need more color, consider some spray paint or glitter.

The dried arrangements are probably my favorites. My mother loved to spray a lot of hers with a touch of gold spray paint. I like them both ways.

I garden for the pollinators.

Great idea

Could they be sprayed with hair spray to keep them from "seeding out" like for instance cat tails?
