Cute Vase Filler Ideas for Your Private Spaces Fruit Slices and Plants Need a unique vase filler idea for an outdoor event? Lemons and limes aren't just for garnish or beverages -- they can be used to create festive outdoor decor such as table centerpieces for a wedding, picnic or gathering of friends and family. Glass layers made by setting one vase inside another hold citrus slices in place for a centerpiece that looks good enough to eat or drink. Select unblemished fruits for the best-looking centerpieces. Cut a few lemon slices. Start with a wide-mouth mason or other jar. Arrange the lemon slices around the inside of the jar and fill with water.
Plant A Coin Money Tree Got any spare change? Use it to create a whimsical vase decoration idea for a windowsill or kitchen counter. It’s more fun when you use different denominations. You can use a mixture of different coins or use quarters in one plant, dimes in another and so on. Try different kinds of glassware. Tall, short, oblong, square, round, or weirdly shaped glass for conversation. Add artificial leafy stems to give the illusion of planting your own "money trees."
River Rocks and Plants For a vase filler that brings the feel of a walk by a forest stream indoors, think river rocks. Fill a clear round vase from the bottom to about halfway up, starting with small rocks and ending with large ones. Use assorted shapes and different colors to add to the flavor of the look. Add water and top with a short cluster of colorful woodsy blooms such as camellias or rhododendrons. Try different sizes and shapes of the glass vase as well. Be creative. Let your imagination soar.
Neon Glass Beads and Plants When it comes to the question of what to put in a vase, one of the most popular vase filler ideas is glass beads. Rather than the traditional white or clear, opt for brighter or unusual colors. A bead store, Michaels, or even Walmart has so many varieties to choose from. Arrange several vases or bottles with complementary hues and top each off with a singular bloom. *Tip: For beads with deep hues and unusual shapes, try the fire glass beads often used in fire pits.
