14 Creative Ways to Display Flowers
Why settle for a boring vase when you can use these creative ways to display flowers? Some of these unique flower arrangements will surprise you!
Hey everyone! We took a little break last week for some much needed family time and now we’re trying to soak up every last bit of these summer days. I’m trying to keep things simple and that means with decorating, too. One easy and inexpensive way to brighten any room is by adding a pretty bouquet of flowers. They make me happy especially when displayed in unexpected ways. So today I thought I would share 14 creative ways to display flowers that make an big impact.
Think outside the vase!
#1. Vintage Tins or Canisters
With so many sizes and colors to choose from, this is a farmhouse favorite.
#2. Dishes
Break out the saucers and cups or gravy boats.
#3. Old Trophies
How about in a beautiful antique trophy? I love the patina and shape of this one from 12th and White.

#4. Glass Bottles
These are classic whether grouped together…
Or by themselves…
Pinerest
Or different colors…
#5. Suitcases or Trunks
How about in a suitcase. Who would have thought?? These take DIY flower arrangements to a whole new level!
#6. Wooden boxes or Crates
Truly a farmhouse favorite! These make beautiful DIY rustic centerpieces.

#7. Tin Cans or Buckets
#8 Tea & Coffee Pots
Super creative floral arrangements in an antique tea pot.
#9. Fruits and Vegetables
Creative ways with food…
#10. Kitchen Gadgets
Do you have an old colander ?
#11. Baskets
Another easy DIY flower arrangement is with baskets you already have.
#12. Crocks
#13. Old Tool Boxes
Functional and pretty!
#13. Watering Cans
Talk about a farmhouse flower arrangement!
#14. Embellished White Pitchers
Of course my very favorite way to display flowers is with one of my white farmhouse pitchers. To add another layer, simply add embellishments to the outside.
TIP: I find the most amazing flowers at my local grocery store. They are 3 small bouquets for $15 and I mix in faux to make them go even further. Can you tell which ones above are faux?
So whether you use real or faux flowers, why not think outside the vase and create something unique for your home? What’s your favorite way to display flowers?
Happy DIY’ing!

This is great! My nearest grocery store has the best flowers around too and I either get the pre made bouquets or sometimes try to make my own. Could you please give some instructions on how to use oasis and whatever else I would need to do a flower arrangement in a basket? Is it a lot of work?
Hi Liz! Thank you so much! The grocery store is a great place to find flowers! Using a basket is a great idea. You’ll just need to put a vessel of some kind (vase, pitcher) smaller than the basket to hold the water. You would arrange the flowers the same way you normally do. 🙂
Aww so many beautiful ideas here. Love the lemons and limes in the vase. I wish I had thought of this with my cheese grater before I chucked it in the bin when it took a chunk out of my finger.
Wow! These are all such beautiful arrangements. I have a hard time getting my flowers to look like they actual fill the container I pick but I love these ideas. Pinned.
Floral arrangements and I don’t get along well and this round-up is full of ideas that I think I can handle. Thank you
So many beautiful ways to display flowers. I love the airiness of the glass bottles, and the stacked dishes tied with twine is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing at the #HomeMattersParty 🙂
