What to put in the vase? gallery of inspirational arrangements
Large or small, high or low, ceramic, stoneware or glass, round or geometric. When it comes to vases, the choice is truly vast! The dozens of possibilities for decorating them in style can be an even greater dilemma. Here are some inspiring design ideas starring vases.
The choice of interior accessories is almost as important as the decision to buy furniture or the colour of the walls. With their help, we can turn our flat into a cosy asylum and emphasise our taste. Decorative vases flexibly adapt to every design idea and bring out the best in a room. They offer the possibility of quickly changing the decoration, so that we can carry out a small metamorphosis of the interior in no time at all. Which vase to choose and what to fill it with, as well as where to display it? We have looked at various solutions.
Versatile vase decorations
For vase arrangements, we very often use fresh flowers. For many people, there is nothing more beautiful than a bouquet of fragrant tulips, daffodils or roses. Such a vase can be placed in most domestic settings and its contents can be adapted to the current season. If you want to create your own compositions, you can combine different plant species. A single flower placed in a tall, narrow-necked container will also make a beautiful decoration.
Dried plants are also a versatile way to arrange a vase. Dried flax, lavender, nigella or cotton looks very striking. Dried eucalyptus leaves and cereal ears are also worth considering. Regardless of the species of dried plants, their care consists only of regular dusting. Among other things, this makes it ideal for those who travel frequently.
Not everyone has a hand with flowers, or sometimes we simply lack the time to care for them. In this case, it is worth considering choosing artificial equivalents, which will require far less attention. There is no need to worry about the final appearance of the decoration. High-quality artificial flowers are almost as good as real plants. They are also extremely long-lasting, so you can pack them in a box and store them until you decide to display them again.
What to fill a glass vase with?
Glass is one of the most versatile and timeless materials for vases. Whether it is coloured or transparent, glass will always look good. Such a vessel is suitable not only as a decoration for a chest of drawers or a table, but also for a windowsill or the floor. What to put in a glass vase? The possibilities are virtually endless!
Fresh flowers are an absolute must. Whether you choose to put a whole bunch of flowers or just a single rose, for example, the effect will always be aesthetically pleasing. It is also a good idea to create a composition with the help of decorative branches. In spring, these can be young basil or twigs with budding leaves or flower buds, and in autumn and winter, twisted branches of Manchurian willow. When arranging a glass vase, it is worth remembering that the clear vessel will also expose the stems, so they should be arranged very carefully.

What else can you fill a glass vase with? Dried grasses are a great solution. Not only the fluffy flowers of pampas grass but also many of the more common varieties look beautiful. Look for inspiration in the autumn in nearby meadows.
What to put in a tall vase?
Tall vases are a great way of displaying decorations made from all sorts of twigs and grasses. The advantage of this type of decoration is their long stems, which fill the entire vessel and allow for an aesthetically pleasing composition. The natural branches of the calla, for example, will look beautiful. Any kind of garland will also work in oblong vases, as the hanging vines will wrap around the vessel in an interesting way. If you would like to create a composition in a tall glass vase, a transparent decanter can be used as the base, allowing the decoration to play the first fiddle.
Original rhythm - the arrangement of ceramic vases
Fired clay is a material from which beautiful vessels have been made for centuries. They can take on sculptural forms, which in themselves are an original decoration. If you are looking for unique solutions, it is worth taking a closer look at the line of organically shaped vases. Their spatial and irregular forms make them impossible to pass by indifferently. The Qos and Tilo models in bright, friendly shades are good examples.
Ceramic vases like good company. They will create an interesting composition on a coffee table together with pot holders, stoneware containers and other decorative vessels. This type of arrangement has a lot of charm. It is good if the individual elements are of different heights, but have some common denominator - colour, material or form. This will create a coherent, multi-level composition, which will attract the eye with its dynamism. If you do not feel confident in combining different vase models, it is worth using ready-made solutions, such as the Bri collection of decorative vessels. Its elements have been designed to serve multiple functions at the same time and complement each other perfectly.
A vase does not always need decoration
Decorative vases for the living room are already an interesting decoration on their own. Often, no additional accessories are needed to make them look beautiful. Models made of coloured glass - whether with a perfectly smooth surface or with visible grooves - are ideal for this role. Bruni, Boo or Grim vases are good examples. They can easily be combined in unique compositions or presented as individual decorative elements. An interesting way to display them is to set them on a tray or stand. We can choose a place for them on a table top or the top of a chest of drawers.
Large vase - not just for flowers
When arranging a transparent vase, it is worth experimenting a little. Sand can help. You can use grains you brought from your favourite beach or shop bought grains, either in their natural colour or in many different colours. Add succulents and decorative pebbles.
The ornaments you choose for the glass vase can also create an atmospheric atmosphere in the interior. Stump candles or floating candle warmers placed on the surface of the water in the vessel will help. Before lighting the wick, make sure that no plants or decorative ribbons are within reach of the flame.

Large vases also work well in the kitchen. We can use them as vessels for homemade lemonade or as organisers for utensils used during cooking. A stoneware jug can change its purpose along with your needs. When it is no longer useful in the dining room, it will be perfect as a vase for herbs or dried fruit.
