Idea 2: Caged flowers

Place flowers and plants in birdcages and hang them in the trees or place them on the table. For an even nicer detail, place the flowers in different shaped vases such as a bulb vase or a test tube vase.

Idea 3: Vintage swing

Do you have a strong tree where you could hang a swing from? Lucky you! Decorate the swing with sunflowers, gloriosa and dill. This will create a romantic vintage look and will bring your inner-child out again. Do you like this floral outfit? Take a look at where you can buy it in our article about summer outfits.

Idea 4: Magnetic vases

Find a piece of metal or stainless steel to your garden or on your balcony, for example in your outdoor kitchen or a steel bucket. This is the ideal surface for Serax’s magnetic design vases. Place the vases on the surface and fill them with your favourite flowers. You could also surround them with a number of plants in terracotta and vintage pots. Voila, another step closer to the floral end result.
