Spring Decorations – Faux Florals and Easter Eggs
Spring Decorations – Faux Florals and Easter Eggs
What better time of year than Spring to decorate your home with flowers. Mix in a few (or a ton) of colorful Easter eggs and you’re ready to welcome Spring into your home! Yay.
If you have a green thumb then you are probably lucky enough to use real flowers this time of year. I’m far from having a green thumb as I’ve mentioned before. So it’s usually all faux flowers for me. Thankfully, I really enjoy faux flowers. They’ve become a slight addiction of mine, hehe… So I’ve got a bunch of faux flowers all around my home now that Spring is kicking in. Probably too much honestly but I can’t help it sometimes.
Now that the season of Lent is finishing up I’ve started shifting over to slowly enjoying all the beautiful things Spring has to offer and started bringing out all of my Spring decorating supplies. When it comes to decorating and crafting I always make use of many of the things I already own and todays collection is no exception. So if you’ve been here before you may have already seen many of the items I’m using here. It’s so fun going out to shop for new things and see what’s out and new but I can’t help but make use of what I already have too, even if it’s stuff I’ve used over and over again. 🙂
Spring Decorations – Faux Florals and Easter Eggs
For this first one I’m using a small fishbowl vase filled with colorful Easter eggs, and pink and white flowers.
I used a floral tape grid to help my flowers stay in place. I always find it difficult to keep flowers from moving around in a round vase but this grid makes all the difference!
I simply scattered my flowers, starting with the white flowers and moved them around until I got them to look like this…
Next, blue faux flowers (hyacinths and a couple of daisies)…
Most of the flowers here are hyacinths but I added in a couple of wildflower daisies that, if you look closely, I “embellished” with a few sprigs of tiny greenery to give them a little something extra .
Green and white Easter eggs and a few faux limes fill two cylinder vases.
As for the yellow bow here, I used adhesive dots to attach my bow together to the strand of ribbon around the vases. Hot glue is fine too but I always try to not use my hot glue whenever possible. I’m really impatient when it comes to waiting for it to heat up 🙂
My “shoe lace” bow easily took its shape because of the ribbon that I’m using which is a wired ribbon that I found a few years ago at the Container Store.
It may be difficult to see the sticky dot but its placed right behind the center of my bow to keep it in place and FYI, these dots are kind of big so I usually cut them down for sticking on small items like this bow.
Lastly, a simple White and purple tulip arrangement.
I started with my white tulips…
Then I took a few of the tulips and stretched out the petals for a bloomed look.
If you notice, I added one open tulip on either side of my arrangement, the one on the left side pointing up and the one on your right side facing down. This helped give the arrangement some shape and more of a natural look.
Lastly I added a few shimmery purple faux tulips.
(Everything used in this blog post are things I already had with the exception of these purple tulips that I picked up about a month ago at Michaels Craft Store)
That’s it for this one. Hope you enjoyed it and are inspired to bring a little Spring love into your home too!
Sending happy, safe, and healthy vibes your way. May God bless you and your family today and every beautiful day to come!
