Your Flowers Can Look as Good as Martha Stewart’s (While Saving Hundreds of Dollars)

Although her gardens are gorgeous throughout the entire year (which is quite impressive), Martha Stewart’s gardens really shine come spring when all the flowers begin to bloom. She has an entire tulip patch planted just for cuttings and bouquets, and she loves to display them in a super unique vase that’s turning heads on Instagram. It’s unlike anything you’ve seen, but you can re-create the look for much less than the vase’s hefty price.

“I have been growing most of my tulips in beds specifically planted for cutting and many tulips planted this way, away from everything else, produce flowers year to year,” Stewart wrote in her Instagram caption. “All of the reds and pinks are second-year blooms and are large and plump and glorious!”

To display the florals, Stewart arranged them in this unique scissor-cut vase from Hudson Grace. It’s no surprise that people — from all levels of floral arrangement — loved it. “That’s my kind of vase,” one person commented on the post. “I’m so terrible at arranging flowers. This would help.”

Another person added, “That vase is amazing.” With another person commenting. “I love the glass tulip vase! I haven’t seen a clear glass one before!”

Hudson Grace makes several of these styles of vases, all of which are handmade and well over $500 each. The Angelina Small Scissor Cut Vase looks the most similar to Stewart’s and helps to create the appearance of a full bouquet, even if you’re only working with a few stems. Or, you can load up each vase segment to create a super-lush look like Stewart did.

If a $500 glass vase just isn’t in your budget (you’re not alone), you can actually create a similar look by using separate vases clustered together. These vases on Amazon come in three different sizes and tall, cylindrical shapes that, when grouped tightly together, can look very similar to the Hudson Grace scissor-cut vase.

Even this linked set of test tube-style vases could mimic the Hudson Grace vase. You can bunch them together, or set them up in a row depending on what blooms you’re working with.

Once you have a vase similar to Stewart’s, you’ll have to work on mastering the art of growing tulips next! Or, you know, pick some flowers up from Trader Joe’s.
