Silk Poinsettia Vase Arrangements

Start by cutting the poinsettias off the bunches leaving as long of a stem as possible with wire cutters or pliers. In a single floral vase, place some small colored marbles in the bottom of the vase. Place one or two of the silk poinsettias in the vase. The colored marbles will add a splash of color to the arrangement.

For larger vases, more silk poinsettias and marbles will make a fuller arrangement. Babies' breath or other types of greenery can be added for a fuller look to the vase arrangements.

For larger silk poinsettia arrangements, two to six bushes of silk flowers will need to be used. The size of the container will determine how many bushes of silk poinsettias will be used.
