Refresh + Reset your living space with a vase or two.
Decorating with vases is one of those easy home styling tricks that instantly makes a space feel more considered, even if the rest of the room is still a work in progress. Grouped on a console table or lined up along a sunny windowsill, vases do exactly what good styling should—they add shape, contrast, and that finished-but-not-overdone look every room needs.

Whether tall and slender, curvy or round, vases naturally brighten and personalize any corner. Whether you’re arranging small groups for a delightful ensemble or experimenting with placement, we’ve got simple styling tips, creative ideas, and a peek at some of our favorite vessels to inspire your next home refresh.
Show off their beauty in the most fabulous way. Ideas for Decorating With Vases.
Cluster Vases as a Table Centerpiece
A single vase is lovely, but a group of vases is a design moment. Create a cohesive centerpiece by grouping vessels of different heights and widths on a dining table, coffee table, or sideboard. Keep the palette cohesive, but introduce contrast with matte and glossy finishes, curved and angular silhouettes, smooth and textured surfaces.
There are tons of ways to display vases around the home. Scatter bud vases across a shelf, let a single ceramic piece take center stage, or line up classic glass forms on a table for symmetry. For a balanced arrangement, work in odd numbers and vary the scale. The goal isn’t perfection, it’s visual rhythm.
Decorate Shelves & Entryways with Artisan Vases
If your shelf’s feeling a little flat or your console is begging for attention, artisan ceramic vases are an easy win. They bring in texture, shape, and that effortless “oh, I just collect beautiful things” vibe. Style them with fresh flowers, dried stems, or leave them empty.
A tall, sculptural vase in your entryway instantly adds height, drama, and a little warmth the moment you walk through the door. Layer in a candle, a catch-all tray, or a vintage find you love to make it feel collected.
Add some lush plants, whether it’s real, faux, or foraged from your backyard, greenery in a vase is the easiest way to make a space feel fresh. Eucalyptus, olive branches, something wild and asymmetrical ,there are no rules here. Just drop it in and let it do its thing.
Make a Statement with Oversized Vases
Large vases are ideal for styling long-stemmed flowers, pampas grass, or dried branches, the kinds of stems that instantly add height and softness to a space. They work just as beautifully centered on a dining table, anchoring a console, or layered into a styled sideboard.
But don’t limit them to the usual spots—decorating with large vases can transform overlooked spaces like a living room nook or hallway. A tall vase there brings structure, texture, and a deliberate design touch that elevates the entire room. Choose a vase with a sculptural silhouette, or something neutral and oversized for that effortless, minimalist feel.
Use Vases as Standalone Decorative Art
There's nothing like a beautiful bouquet of seasonal blooms to fill a room in an art piece vessel. While fresh flowers are the typical choice, they come and go. However, you can create a beautiful everlasting display withartificial flowers for instant texture in a room.
A thriving home for your greenery or a charming empty vessel for your dinner table, a vase creates a visual setting wherever placed. Styling on the coffee table, counter, or bedroom, decorating with vases from the living room to the bedroom will spruce up and showcase fabulous texture while elevating your greenery to complement your interiors.
