Poppy seed-heads and baubles . by beryl

Poppy seed-heads and baubles .

I love poppies in all forms - after my poppies finished flowering and turned into seed heads - I gathered and dried them . Seeds were gathered - amazing how many of my neighbours requested some of the seeds ! and the dried poppy heads on the stalks are now in a vase in my conservatory while these heads were cut off the stems and arranged in a bowl with glass baubles ! So I have had full use of my poppies !
Another wet day today - waiting for my hairdresser to call to give me a trim !

A lovely image Beryl
Love all the different shapes and textures

Lovely display Beryl your poppy heads are certainly useful in many ways. Dry here at the moment but a yellow weather warning is in place for us today.

They make a lovely table-top decoration with the baubles.

Nice idea for a very creative and pretty arrangement. I think I've seen these used as part of Potpourri as well.

I love poppies and those little seed-heads, but have usually just replanted them. I didn’t think to use them dried as decoration. Looks lovely.

Poppy heads are so attractive and I love this arrangement with the baubles. Not only are you talented you also have a very artistic flair.
