There’s something timeless and grounding about a beautiful ceramic vase. It’s not just a vessel for flowers—it’s a sculptural piece in its own right. Whether it’s hand-thrown with an earthy texture or smooth and minimalist, a vase can shift the entire mood of a room.
Here are three of our favourite ways to style vases this season—using items you probably already have at home, or can gather on a mindful walk.
1. The Dried Flower Moment
Dried florals are still having their moment—and for good reason. They’re long-lasting, sustainable, and just plain lovely.
Opt for stems like:
- Pampas grass for a soft, feathery texture
- Bunny tails for charm and whimsy
- Craspedia or dried eucalyptus for structure and scent
Pop them into a neutral-toned ceramic vase and style it on your mantle, sideboard or bedside table. Bonus points if you pair it with one of our hand-poured candles for that “cosy corner” feel.
2. The Foraged Look
We’re big fans of seasonal styling, and one of the best ways to embrace that is by foraging!
Look for fresh wildflowers, cow parsley or ivy in spring and summer. In autumn, go for colourful leaves, rosehips or branches with character. Come winter, bare twigs in a white ceramic vase are beautifully minimal.
Just remember to forage responsibly—never pull up roots or take too much from one area. And always shake out the bugs first!
3. The Sculptural Solo
Sometimes, the vase is the star—and that’s more than enough.
Choose a unique vase with a gorgeous shape or glaze and style it solo on a shelf, entry table or window ledge. No flowers needed. You could even group it with other vases of different heights and shapes for an intentional, styled look.
Top Tip: Use a stack of vintage books or a tray to anchor the display and add height.
Final Thought:
Vases are so much more than flower holders—they’re mini works of art that bring texture, mood and personality into your space. Whether you fill them with foraged finds or leave them artfully empty, ceramic vases are a styling essential.
