No one will argue with the fact that flowers are probably the most common and versatile gift, equally suitable for both a representative of the beautiful half of humanity, and for men. Naturally, the hero of the day, who received as a gift various bouquets of flowers, after the holiday there is a natural question of where to put them. It is great when the house has several different height and width of vases, which will be in demand in such a case, But, unfortunately, it also happens that there are few vases in the house or they are not suitable for large bouquets, which suggests that the vases should also be purchased correctly. What you should pay attention to when buying a vase for flowers? Let us give you the main criteria for this choice.
Naturally, when buying a vase it is impossible to give unambiguous advice about its appearance – in this matter everyone is free to rely on his or her own taste. But, nevertheless, buying a vase for flowers, do not do hasty action – even if you liked the vase looks great, it is worth to think how harmoniously it will fit into the overall interior of your home. And this largely depends on the shape of the vase and the material from which it is made.
Crystal vases, which never lose their relevance, usually fit perfectly into a classic interior. Such noble flowers as roses, gladioli or carnations look very attractive in such a vase.
Glass vases are not demanding to the design of the apartment or house. They can be bought both for fans of minimalism and those who prefer modernity – vases for flowers from glass will look elegant and stylish in both cases. In such a vase it is desirable to put monochrome bouquets, which will look very nice in them.
If you are looking for a vase, which should be in harmony with the ethnic style of the room, you are better to turn your attention to the porcelain, clay or ceramic products. They are perfect for small delicate flowers, such as daisies, forget-me-nots, or cornflowers.
In case your financial status does not allow you to purchase several vases for different bouquets at once, buy the most universal model. It should not have fancy shapes and, of course, should be in the same color. Such a vase will not only accentuate the natural beauty of any bouquet but will be a wonderful decoration for any festive table.
An important criterion for choosing a vase for the bouquet is also its shape. If your choice fell on the product of the usual cylindrical shape, then you should know that in such a vase most advantageously look lush bouquets. In addition, in cylindrical vases you can easily place bouquets of any unusual shape of flowers.
Often you can come across vases with an expanding neck. Such models are more for colors that have the same height. They can be tulips, asters or, for example, snowdrops. To make the bouquet look more beautiful it is desirable to arrange the flowers around the neck of the vase, not in the center.
Lush flowers, which have a short stem, are preferably stored in vases that have the shape of a ball. Usually they are used for daisies, ornamental daisies or chrysanthemums.
Vases that gradually expand to the top and look like a small pot are more suitable for large and luxurious holiday bouquets. But in a vase with a narrow neck it is desirable to put a few flowers with a long stem. Tulips or carnations, for example, are ideal for such a vase. Very beautiful in a vase of this shape looks one rose.
