Let’s Arrange Flowers to Match Your Vase Style!

10 Feb. 2568

A "vase" is a popular container for arranging flowers and decorating various areas of homes and buildings. If we consider flowers as the stars of this artistic arrangement, then the flower vase serves as the supportive friend that enhances and showcases the beauty of the flowers, making it perfect for all the ladies out there.

Vases come in various shapes and styles, so the method of arranging flowers can differ accordingly. Today, let's explore some tips on how to arrange flowers in the type of vase you prefer!

1. Tall Vase

The principle for choosing a tall vase is quite simple: just check if the height of the vase is greater than the width of its opening. Tall vases can come in various shapes, such as cylindrical, narrow-necked, or hourglass shapes. However, they all share a common feature—ample space for inserting flower stems.

When arranging flowers in a tall vase, the first consideration should be the length of the stems. If the flower stems are too short, they may end up sinking down to the opening of the vase, making the arrangement look unappealing.

Once you've chosen your flowers, remove any leaves from the portion of the stems that will be inserted into the vase. Trim the ends of the stems at a slight angle to encourage better water absorption. When arranging the flowers in the vase, aim for the stems to rise about 1/3 to 1/4 above the rim of the vase. This height will create a beautiful and balanced look for your arrangement!

2. Low Vase

A low vase has characteristics that are the opposite of a tall vase. The height of this type of vase is relatively short compared to the width of its opening. Common shapes include cylindrical, round, and narrow-necked vases, but they typically have a wide enough base to hold water.

When arranging flowers in a low vase, it's best to use small to medium-sized flowers. The stems should be cut shorter, as using large flowers may cause them to topple over and fall out of the vase.

Arranging flowers in a low vase can follow the same principle as arranging them in a tall vase. Cut the flower stems to rise about 1/3 to 1/4 above the rim of the vase. In some cases, it may be necessary to remove all the leaves from the stems, but those leaves can be reused for decoration by adding them back in to enhance the arrangement's beauty.

In addition to the height of the vase, you can also adapt the flower arrangement method to other factors. For example, with transparent vases, people can see the stems inside, so it’s best to arrange the stems in the same direction for a more aesthetically pleasing look.

For vases with narrow openings or necks, they are suitable for single-flower arrangements. Avoid overcrowding the vase with too many flowers, as this can cause the stems to become crowded at the neck, hindering water flow to the flowers above. This can lead to wilting more quickly than usual.

Regardless of the type of vase you choose for your flower arrangement, one important point is that the vase should not outshine the flowers. The focal point for onlookers should be the flowers first. Additionally, once your arrangement is complete, avoid placing the vase in a way that obstructs other decor in the space. For example, don’t place it in front of a mirror where it may block the reflection of someone looking into the mirror.

All of these are simple flower vase arrangement techniques that we hope you will try to enhance the beauty of various areas in your spaces!
