Live Your Style with Vases

Live Your Style with Vases

Your home should feel personal, collected, and full of character—and vases are one of the easiest ways to bring that vision to life. Whether you’re working with a sleek ceramic silhouette or a colorful glass piece, a good vase is more than just a flower holder—it’s a sculptural element, a pop of color, and a style statement.

Here are 5 creative ways to use vases beyond the basic bouquet:

1. Style Them Solo

Let a bold vase stand on its own. On a shelf, console, or nightstand, a vase with an interesting shape or pattern can act like a mini sculpture. Think of it as jewelry for your room—it doesn’t always need something inside to make a statement.

2. Group in Multiples

Play with scale and shape by grouping two or three vases together. Use similar tones for a calming look, or mix colors and textures for a more curated, collected vibe. Pro tip: odd numbers usually look more natural.

3. Use as a Decorative Accent on a Stack of Books

Pop a small vase on top of a coffee table book stack to break up the flat surfaces and add height. Bonus points for using one with interesting texture or a little sheen—it catches the light and brings movement to your vignette.

4. Fill with Unexpected Texture

Skip the fresh florals and go for dried grasses, curly branches, or even paintbrushes or wooden spoons (in the kitchen!). The vase becomes both practical and pretty—plus, it’s a low-maintenance way to keep the look fresh.

5. Tuck One Into a Bookshelf

Vases break up all those hard lines in a shelf display. Nestle a small one next to stacked books or a framed art piece to soften the look and bring in a more organic shape.

Live Your Style Tip:
Vases are one of the easiest things to swap seasonally. Try a hand-thrown ceramic in fall, a patterned glass piece in spring, or something matte and minimal year-round. Don’t overthink it—just pick what speaks to your style.
