This is so easy to do, the tulip flower arrangement only has a few steps.

To make this DIY tulip arrangement you will need:
Package of tulips
Tall vase
Elastic
Rocks or other vase filler
Measuring tape or ruler.
Scissors
Place a couple inches of rock in the bottom of the vase. Then measure from the top of the rock to the rim of the vase. My vase is 14 inches tall, but after adding the rocks the distance to the rim is 11.5 inches.
Once the measurement is marked down, add water to the vase.

Layout a ruler or measuring tape to the height of your vase and start arranging your flowers alongside it, three tall tulips to the back right, two medium length tulips to the left and then two short tulips to the front right.

Once you have your flowers arranged. Gather the tulip stems together, wrap with an elastic and trim the bottom off evenly. Some tulips stems will be 11 inches long while others may be only four inches that’s fine. Just make sure you cut the bottom evenly across and that all the tulips are shorter than the vase. Remove the elastic.
Remove about 1/3 of the leaves so that you will be able to distinctly see the tulips within the tall vase. Visually check to see if the tulip blossoms stand out, if not remove some more leaves.
Placing Tulips in the Vase
Start with the tallest flowers, place them on the right-hand side at the back.

Then do the shortest stemmed flowers placing them right side at the front.

Carefully place in the medium flowers on the left-hand side. You may disturb some of the petals of the other flowers putting them in. If this happens, use a chopstick or a fork and rearrange the pedals back in place.

I will certainly be purchasing several more bouquets of fresh flowers before Spring, It really brightens the mood in the house.
Enjoy your week!
Such a simple and beautiful arrangement. I just LOVE tulips so much. Pinned.
Tulips are so joyous, I love the first signs of Spring. With Easter and Spring cleaning happening it’s nice to have a little treat for yourself that you can do quickly and without too much fuss. Thank you for taking the time to comment, with three children you have to be a busy lady.
I just love tulips and your tall vase arrangement is very pretty. I need to go shopping now for my own house. Such a pretty way to welcome spring. Thanks for sharing at #HomeMattersParty
I love tulips as well, I think they give us all hope that yes things will be alive and growing soon. It’s so nice when you see them back in the stores again.
That’s genius Leanna, the perfect solution to droopy tulips. Flowers arranging is not really my thing so ideas like this are SO helpful.
Glad to hear it Julie. It’s nice to put out different vases as well, and this way we can use a tall vase without needing a really large floral arrangement. Thank you for the feedback.
Another awesome tulip arrangement idea, Leanna. I love how unique this arrangement is and I have several tall vases. Pinned to refer to your tutorial because this one is definitely going on my dining table for Spring!
That really makes me smile Marie. They really do look so nice with the light shining through. I think they are a little more protected with munchkins enjoying Grandmas as well.
This is absolutely beautiful. I love the unique way you arranged the tulips.
Thank you very much Debra. Tulips are a sure sign Spring will eventually arrive so I treat myself every year. Have a great weekend.
Thank you Milena. Tulips are such a welcome sight when they arrive in the stores. I love them and it was fun to create some new arrangements. I want to do one in a smaller jar where the wrap the outside with the leaves and place the tulip in the middle.
Your tutorial is super helpful to me, Leanna. I love tulips and they always end up leaning sideways from the vase, this is a gorgeous way to present them and enjoy them for a few days longer. Really elegant.
