Dried Poppy Heads (Small)
These beautiful, slate-blue/grey seed heads are the dried pods of the Poppy (Papaver somniferum). While the giant varieties make a bold statement, these smaller heads (approx. walnut size) are the versatile workhorses of the crafting world.
With their smooth skin, ridged "lids," and sturdy stems, they look like miniature architectural sculptures. They are completely natural and untreated, retaining their subtle, earthy colours. Whether you are creating a delicate autumn wreath, a buttonhole, or simply arranging them in a vintage bottle, these pods add instant rustic charm to any setting.

๐ฟ What are Dried Poppies?
These are the seed capsules formed after the poppy flower petals drop. We harvest them in late summer when they have turned a beautiful blue-green and hardened off. They are air-dried naturally to preserve their shape.
Fun Fact: Give them a shake! These pods are often harvested with the seeds still inside, so they rattle like nature's maracas.
๐จ Styling & Crafting Ideas
Small poppy heads are incredibly versatile for creatives:
- Wreath Making: Their lightweight nature makes them perfect for wiring into autumn and Christmas wreaths without weighing them down.
- Table Settings: Their flat base allows them to stand upright (if the stem is cut off) or be laid flat as a rustic table decoration.
- Spray Painting: The smooth surface takes metallic paint (gold/silver) beautifully for festive decorations.
