How to Choose the Right Vase For Your Artificial Flower Arrangements

Artificial flower arrangements are a fabulous way to brighten up any room, bring a little of the outdoors into your home, and add seasonal color to your space. 

However, if you truly want to beautify your home, you must pick a vase that complements your artificial flowers. Depending on the type and quantity of flowers you choose, the right vase will help your arrangement appear more stunning and realistic. 

At Winward Home, we understand it can be difficult to choose the best vases for your artificial flowers. We’d like to help you select the perfect vase for your faux floral arrangements so you can create an opulent, high-quality display that will enhance your interior spaces for years to come.

How to Choose the Best Vase 

There are three important factors you should consider when creating a luxurious and bespoke arrangement: location, style, and proportion.

Location 

Where are you going to place your artificial flower arrangement? Will it go on the dining room table, the coffee table, or the mantle? Always think about the angles and how your arrangement will be perceived by others. For instance, if you want to keep your arrangement on the dining table, it's best to keep it low so you don't obstruct your view of other people.

Style 

When selecting a vase for your artificial flowers, keep the style in mind at all times. Choose a piece that matches your interior design aesthetic, whether it be traditional, casual, or contemporary. Vases made of clear glass are a timeless and popular choice today.

Proportion 

The main attraction in your arrangement should be your artificial flowers, and a vase should not detract from them. Tall artificial flowers should be taller than the vase, and shorter flowers should droop from the vase's sides.

Types of Artificial Flower Arrangement Vases

After you’ve decided on the location and style of your floral arrangement, you must now choose a vase shape. Here are some of the most common vase shapes for deluxe artificial flowers: 

Tall Cylinder 

These tall, round vases for artificial flower arrangements are ideal for flowers with tall stems – such as lilies or tulips. This vase shape also looks gorgeous with sunflowers, peonies and hydrangeas! 

Narrow Necked 

Narrow-necked vases look lovely when filled with tall, thin flowers like peonies or lilies. Their narrow opening and long body make them unsuitable for voluminous, dense bouquets.

Fish Bowl 

Fishbowl and round vases make for a classic, timeless arrangement. They are perfect for flowers that can spill over the vase’s opening – such as peonies, lilies, and roses. For a beautiful, contemporary display, the heads of the artificial flowers should be placed just above or next to the vase's top edge. 

Cube and Square 

A bouquet of flowers with short stems looks great in square or cube vases. When filled with flowers, especially those with large heads like mini roses, magnolias, or peonies, these vases make stunning centerpieces.

Rectangular 

Similar to cube and square vases, rectangular vases look great with short-stemmed flowers – such as delicate roses. To create the best artificial flower arrangement, look for large flowers that are tightly packed and don't open too widely. 

You don't have to be an expert to use artificial flower arrangements to brighten your home. All it takes is simply selecting the right vase shape for the right flowers. Now that you know all about the different types of vases, you can choose the best one to instantly elevate your home's interior design.
