An Easy to “Grow” Faux Tulip Arrangement

Are you looking for an easy to make Spring centerpiece?  A bundle of faux tulips and a few other supplies can be quickly turned into this cute arrangement. These tulips look so real, I had to actually touch them so make sure they were faux!  I received these realistic tulips from my friends at Journey Decor.com

Let me show you how to put together a faux tulip arrangement. 

Gather Together the Elements You Will Need:

Materials

• Faux tulips (or real, if preferred)
• Rustic container (I used a wooden bowl topped with a grapevine wreath)
• Moss (optional)
• Wire cutters (if stems need trimming)

Faux tulips

The actual choice of what kind of faux flowers to use is up to you.  White roses, daisies, or even a bundle of green faux herbs would be equally as lovely.  Bright colors or what I call a hot summer mix of colors (red, hot pink, & orange) could also be used.  The technique is the same regardless of the color palette chosen!

Something to hold the flowers

You will need a vase, a flower pot or something similar to hold the flowers upright.  I used a green container similar to the one pictured below. Mine is actually an old cottage cheese container (I think) that I found at my Mom’s house.  She saved everything!

Grapevine Wreath

A simple grapevine wreath or a twig basket will add support and texture to your arrangement.  

A Wooden Bowl

I added a wooden bowl to my design.  Having a base to the arrangement makes it easier to move it and it also added a little bit of height to the finished creation. 

The grapevine wreath I had nestled quite nicely on the top of the smallest of the four wooden bowls displayed in the carrier.   This particular bowl has a 9 inch opening.

Simple Steps to Put The Arrangement Together

After gathering together your elements, follow these easy steps to put your arrangement together:

1. Place the grapevine wreath on top of the wooden bowl to make a basket
2. Place the tulips or flowers of your choice in the vase/flower pot.  Insert the tulips one at a time, starting with the outer edge and working inward. 
3. Slip the container of flowers down into the center of the “basket” 
4. as a finishing touch, use Spanish moss or sheet moss to cover the top of the container.  I didn’t do this step and looking at the photo, I should have! 
5. Place your basket of tulips on your table or sideboard.  
6. enjoy!

Floral Design Tips

• Mixing slightly different shades of tulips adds depth.
• A crock or pitcher keeps the look casual and spring‑fresh.  This is a great alternative to the grapevine basket/bowl combination. 
• Faux tulips work beautifully because they hold their shape and color.
• This arrangement works on a mantel, entryway table, or kitchen counter.
