10 Modern Flower Arrangements You Can DIY

24 · Nov 12, 2019 · Stephanie Gerber · Leave a Comment

You know why homes in magazines always look dreamy? Yes, they’re spotless and styled especially for the photoshoot, but one detail that always stands out is a flower arrangement. It instantly adds life to a space. The same goes for a table setting – add some flowers and greenery and it instantly looks festive!

You can use any container to create a pretty flower arrangement, including jars, bottles and, of course, vases. The same goes for what you put inside: combine grocery store flowers with some greenery from the back yard, and you’ve got yourself an affordable alternative to fancy bouquets.

Before you start, get some tips for how to make flowers last longer, and scroll down for some of our favorite modern flower arrangements:
