31 Days of Orange: Day 12 Mulitple Vase Centerpiece

Most flowers look best when they are clustered by type and color. That's what I think anyway. I know many florists like to mix all of the flowers together, but that makes your eyes dart all over the place.

This style is more like a garden. There's a bunch of roses over here. A bunch of hydrangea over there. And so on.

 

That's the same concept used in this beautiful flower arrangement designed by Planet Flowers. It's made of several bunches of flowers clustered in vases.

And here's my favorite part. They're propped up on an angle in the vases. So they give the flower arrangement more height and presence. No more worrying about flowers that are too short.

Some folks call this a deconstructed flower arrangement. The individual vases alone don't make much of a statement, but together they make one stunning flower arrangement.

You could even use smaller vases and less flowers if you like.

You can make this arrangement in no time. Just pick up several bunches of flowers from your ahem, favorite local florist, Trader Joe or wherever you get your flowers.

 What do you think about this style of flower arranging?

P.S. If you decide to make this flower arrangement, keep your eye on the bottom of the vases to make sure the stems are always in the water!

I love the groupings!

Thanks Linda. It's a simple way to get a lot of look for not too much money.

I rather like them all grouped together..but probably not "tied" together. Loose and relaxed is probably more my style. Flowers in any way shape or form are beautiful.

Mona, Thanks so much for your comment. I agree. A simple, relaxed look would be very pretty.

How pretty! I like the idea of color arrangements that stick with one color. I REALLY like days of orange series as the main color in my home is orange! Thanks for linking up at Freshmen Friday!

Erin, Thanks so much for your comment. Hope you get a chance to look at all of the posts, because there is plenty of orange to go around!
