If you want to give your home a new look without spending a ton of money, fresh flowers are up to the task. Picking up a few bouquets of fresh spring flowers from the florist is all you need to bring new life to any room in your home. Simply use items you already have on hand to display your flowers and watch your home spring to life.
Choosing your flowers
Choose several varieties of flowers in a range of colors to give yourself plenty of decorating options. Tulips and daffodils are popular for use in spring decorating and will give any room a sunny appearance. Daisies are another good flower to use in spring displays, and their simple beauty makes them a favorite for those who enjoy a modern farmhouse or cottage decorating style.
Mixed bouquets are a great choice for interior decorating whether you use them as they are or separate them to make multiple displays. Mixed bouquets are usually made with seasonal florals, which makes them a natural choice for spring decorating.
Selecting a container
There is no need to purchase an expensive vase to display your fresh flowers. In fact, items you have around the house often make the best containers and will give your arrangements a unique look. Mason jars, old tea kettles, crocks, rubber boots, small buckets, coffee tins, and old mugs make perfect containers for flowers.
Displaying your flowers
Create a spring grouping by placing one flower in multiple containers, such as a mason jar or mug, and arrange them on a wooden or woven tray. Intertwine greenery around the containers or place accents, such as seashells, decorative stones, etc., in the tray to complete the look. Display the tray on an accent table in an entryway, on a kitchen table, or on a bedroom dresser.
Divide a bouquet of flowers in half and display each half in an old pair of rubber boots. Place on a front porch or on each side of a doorway to create a fun grouping that will dress up any room for spring. Create a fun kitchen display by placing a bouquet of daffodils or tulips in a tea kettle on a kitchen countertop or table.
The great thing about fresh flowers is their versatility and natural beauty when used in interior design. With a little creativity, you can enjoy a new look every week if you want without spending a fortune. Fresh spring flowers are a beautiful and welcome addition to any room of your home.
