When it comes to spring decorations with flowers, we usually think of bulbous flowers such as daffodils, hyacinths and snowdrops. Other spring classics are also ideal for beautiful and, above all, long-lasting arrangements. For example, decorating with primroses is a wonderful idea. How about it?
Did you know that the flowers of the flower are edible and are therefore often used for decorative purposes in salads and desserts? But also classically planted in plant bowls etc. or as a “stamp” for beautiful spring pictures – primroses are simply perfect for spring decorations!
Create a beautiful picture with the flowers
When squeezed, the flowers release their pigments. You can use this property to create a beautiful spring picture. For this you need:
- a piece of paper
- Primrose
- Leaves, preferably reddish
- a piece of foil
- Hammer (also a meat hammer, but on the flat side)
How to make a picture yourself as a decoration with primroses:
- Distribute the flowers and leaves on the paper according to your wishes.
- Place the foil over it.
- Tap the flowers and leaves with the hammer (make sure they are on a suitable surface) so that they release their dyes.
- Remove the foil and then the plant remains.
Decoration with primroses in special containers
Your flowers will go to your new home in pots, but these pots are only temporary and will be replaced with prettier ones. But how about using special plant containers instead of a flower pot? Some you can plant directly, while others you can simply place them as they are.
Spring decoration in vintage style with an old potty
You can use a lot of things that are no longer of any use to you in the household.An old porcelain cup, an old bowl or a jug or pot like in the example above. A drainage layer is recommended due to the lack of drainage holes. Then you can plant the plant directly or line the pot with foil beforehand to prevent or at least delay rust.
Cool decoration idea with an old Bundt cake tin
This idea is just as rustic and beautifulwith an old baking panfor Bundt cake. The same rules apply here as those mentioned above: drainage is an advantage, then either add potting soil directly to the mold or first line it with foil. Combine several colors of primrose or add other spring flowers.
Porcelain bowl for a romantic look indoors and outdoors
An old roasting dish also offers a lot of space. You can fill it completely with flowers as you like or just add accents here and there and decorate the free spaces with moss. We like the simple choice of colors in the exampleof white flowersvery good, because it makes the whole thing look more delicate.
Nests and wreaths
Create a special Easter basket by simply placing a spring flower in it. You can simply put them in immediately after purchase. Feel free to combine with other decorations to suit the season by putting together small groups.
You can also use the purchased primroses directly if you use a beautiful wreath as a table decoration. Simply place as many potties in the middle as there is space for.
Beautiful combination ideas for table decorations with spring flowers
Combine the primroses with any other spring flowers and decorations, using any colors you like.
Minimalist decoration with primroses in green and white
The arrangement becomes really elegant if you simply use simple flowers in white. In addition, you can also add one or two figures in silver to add even more elegance. The same applies to plants with silver leaves, which, like moss, can be used to fill gaps.
Depending on how much space you have available in the planting container, you can play with the heights. Primroses are quite low-growing flowers, so you can plant taller spring flowers, such as crocuses, as a background or central floral designbeautiful tulips(in this case ideally with white flowers, of course).
Colorful through spring with floral decorations
After the dreary winter, many people are looking forward to the bright colors of flowers and want them in their own four walls. Therefore, your flower arrangement can of course be designed in many colors.
In a larger planting bowl you have enough space to develop your creativity. You even have the opportunity to create a mini meadow. All you need is the free spacecover with moss.
Basket with Easter decorations, willow branches and more
You should first line a basket with foil. Then you can start designing.
An Easter bunny figure and around it a primrose and a few violets, all in one color or colorful as you like. That's all you need to create a beautiful spring decoration for the table.
You can also display primroses as table decorations in this more impressive way. An Easter bunny figure and daffodils take up the middle. The primroses were distributed in a circle around it. At the end you are still at equal distancesWillow branches with catkinsinto the soil and tie together at the top ends.
As already mentioned, the flowers belong to primrosesto the edible ones. Not only can you use them directly, but you can also preserve them and use them for another occasion or for permanent decoration in spring. This will prevent them from wilting over time.
How to preserve primrose flowers:
- Pick the flowers off the plant.
- Separate an egg.
- Using a brush, brush the flowers with the egg white.
- Roll the still wet flower in sugar.
- Set them aside to dry.
You can eat the dried flowers immediately, store them in a sealable container for up to three weeks or use them to decorate desserts, salads and other things. The flowers will also look very pretty in a glass bowl, for example. For example, use a lockable decorative jar for storage, which you then simply place on the table like a cookie jar that everyone can help themselves to.
