A Thrifted Popcorn Bowl Shows Great Potential For Bouquets

Displaying a stunning flower bouquet in your kitchen or living room is a charming way to bring the outdoors into your home. However, before you can move forward with this, you must find the perfect planter or vase. It's a good idea to browse your local thrift stores to locate a stunning ceramic piece to hold your flowers while sticking to your budget. Rather than heading straight for the vases or planters during your shopping trip, try to find a special popcorn bowl that shows great potential for bouquets. Believe it or not, a ceramic popcorn bowl with a kernel sifter at the bottom is perfect for holding flowers.

You can fill the opening below the sifter at the bottom with water to hydrate your flowers. The holes at the bottom also do a great job of keeping flowers upright; simply slide each of your flowers into the holes by the stems. You will then be left with a healthy flower display that doesn't flop over or droop down. The bowl shape of this ceramic piece makes it a bit different from the typical planter or vase. As a result, it will add unique visual appeal to your home. If you've been searching for an eye-catching way to decorate your home with flowers, this might just be the decor piece of your dreams.

It's worth searching for one of these special popcorn bowls at your local thrift store to snag your own for a discounted price. If you aren't able to find a bowl there, your next step should be to browse online marketplaces for a used one. If all else fails, you can purchase a new piece to display flower bouquets in your home. Uncommon Goods sells a bowl that appears to be identical to the one shown in the video for $48.

You also have the option to modify any large ceramic bowl you already own. All you have to do is place a drain cover, such as the LEKEYE Hair Catcher, into the bottom of it. Keep in mind that the structure and size of the bowl would need to allow for a gap below the drain cover to hold water. You may want to place the cover into a few of the large ceramic bowls you own to see which is the best fit.

To switch up the look of your bowl, consider applying textured spray paint to add dimension to your repurposed flower vase. Rust-Oleum Stone Creations Spray is a great option. For the best results, select a paint color that is similar or complementary to the color of your bowl. You'll also need to apply the paint in layers, allowing each layer to dry before moving on to the next. When you are done, add water and slide your flowers inside.
