Tet Shopping: How to choose the right flower vase

(Dan Tri) - Depending on the type of flower and the location of the vase, you should choose the appropriate vase shape such as a bud vase, round vase or square vase.

According to florist Trang Linh, choosing the right vase will help the flowers reach their maximum beauty and make it easier for the arranger to do it. Before choosing a vase, you need to consider the location of the vase. Will the flowers be placed in a position that can be seen from all sides or just the front of the vase? If placed on a tea table, the vase will usually be viewed from above. If the vase is placed on the dining table, it is necessary to balance the vase low so as not to affect the eating activity. Next, pay attention to the style. Vases are like other decorative items in the house. Therefore, we need to choose a vase with a style that matches the overall space. As a general rule, the flowers or vases should dominate in a ratio of 1.5:1. To arrange tall flowers, the flowers must be 1.5 times higher than the height of the vase. In addition, for a short vase, the height of the vase should be 1.5 times higher than the height of the flowers.

Flower vase

Bud vases are suitable for single flowers. There are many shapes for bud vases such as small milk bottles, glass jars, round vases or vases with complex shapes. With bud vases, you should only put one stem or a maximum of 2-3 branches. Do not put too many flowers in a bud vase because it will create a feeling of disproportion.
