Why You’ll Love This Spring Floral Project
If you’re craving colorful spring flowers and homemade charm but want something more creative than a basic vase, this birds nest vase craft blends natural texture with lush blooms. Inspired by a classic flower in the nest look, this project uses grapevine wreaths to create an eye-catching floral display that highlights your favorite lilies.
Supplies You’ll Need
To make your own springtime birds nest vase, gather:
- Grapevine wreath forms — small sizes work best
- A bowl or small planter — serves as the base
- Wire cutters — for trimming grapevine pieces
(Optional: Floral wire to secure pieces if desired)
How to Make Your Birds Nest Vase
- Build the nest base:
Wrap the grapevine wreath pieces around your bowl or pot, starting at the bottom and working upward. Layer and weave until the bowl is completely covered, creating a dense, nest-like texture. - Shape the vase:
Aim for a wider top and narrower bottom to mimic a real nest — this helps create a natural, organic feel. - Add fresh flowers:
Once your nest is complete, tuck in lilies (and tulips if you want extra color). Grocery stores, garden centers, and flower shops carry lilies in many shades — choose the colors that match your décor.
Styling Tips
- Choose white lilies and pastel accents for a classic spring table display.
- Add a few fresh tulips to complement the lilies and enhance the overall color palette.
- Place your finished nest vase in a dining room, entryway, or mantel to instantly brighten your space.
