I was at Costco today and they had some mixed blue and white Hydrangea arrangements by Nearly Natural that looked pretty good.

I thought the white arrangement looked more natural/life- like (whites usually do to me) than did the blue ones. I love hydrangeas.

At first I wasn't sure but gave them a second look and after roughing the blooms up with my hand a little they looked pretty good and had a life-like feel.

I almost bought one but DH was with me and said I already had too many flowers etc, so he talked me out of it....you know how that goes! They just don't understand.....

I may go without DH next week!

Right? He just thinks differently than I when it comes to shopping.

For instance I'll show him a nice jacket and say this would look nice on you and he'll just turn up his nose and say I already have a jacket.....huh? And I'll say, what's that got to do with it? haha.....

I think your husband and mine must be related!

They do sound tempting, @GingerHead !   I also find, in general, that white or cream faux flowers seem more realistic, for some reason.  And hydrangeas have that devil-may-care, casual, not-trying-too-hard air, looking soft and lovely throughout the year...

The actual website has a 30% off sale now.

Probably still a better price at Costco.

ETA: Pink or blue hydrangeas in a vase with Illusion water for $39 at Costco dot com. You might have sold me on something else, @GingerHead 😜

@GingerHead  Are these "real touch ";faux flowers? I once ordered from nearly m

natural and the flowers were plastic. Not a good look. Real touch looks much more realistic. There are a few companies that make "real touch. Petals.com is one company.

My local Costco has them in-store for $29.99.  They do look real in person.

They didn't have the pink variety at my Costco, just the white and the blue for $29.99.

At first, like I said above, I was iffy about them....they looked too perfect or something but after giving them a once over (a roughing over with my hand....sorry Costco) I really thought they looked good. I would clip off that rafia tie from them (pictured below) though.

I just did a little research and it looks like on their website a comparable (looks comparable) is a lot more expensive....I'm talking $80.00 plus dollars.....oh darned my DH!

@tansy That's too much pressure! I don't know if I could take being responsible for corrupting you twice!haha
