Ways to Decorate With Tulips In Your Home
Tulips…I just can’t get enough of them and I love to decorate with them. Even they don’t last long, I just can’t stop myself from buying them every spring! If you feel the same way, I think you’ll like my simple and inexpensive ways to decorate with tulips in your home!

Here are some ideas to decorate with tulips in your home…
Use Tulips in Your Easter Decor:
Since I don’t over-decorate for holidays, I love the way these white tulips contribute to the little bits of Easter decor around my house.
And I really do mean “little bits” when it comes to Easter decor! You can see my three little ceramic bunnies up on the mantel in the background. Yeah, those and the kitchen bunny are almost all I use…simplicity.
Place a Simple Vase of Tulips on the Kitchen Island:
Just a simple vase of flowers is all I need to brighten up the kitchen island for spring. This towel I bought at Homegoods pretty much says it all!
Add Artificial Tulips to Your Front Door:
And what better way to welcome guests to our “home sweet home” than with tulips hanging on the front door. Obviously, these are faux tulips but they still provide a warm spring welcome…and they will last all season!
Create Table Centerpieces with Tulips:
Blue and White for Mother’s Day
Although the white tulips are probably my favorites, I have used more colorful ones on occasion. Plus, I have always loved using pink tulips with navy…such a cheerful color combination.
Pink tulips really stand out against white cabinets too…
I use my crystal vases all the time. They are probably my most used wedding gifts!
Although, I do fill my white pitchers with flowers almost as often as the crystal vases! The white pitchers have more of a casual farmhouse look than the crystal. I usually buy them in Homegoods whenever I see them. You can never have enough of those!…
Decorate with Tulips on Your Spring Mantel:
That year, I went bold with the tulips and added some red ones to the mantel…
The red tulips work well during the Valentine’s to spring transition. I think we can all appreciate a vibrant color to brighten up those dreary late winter days!
Welcome Guests with Tulips in the Foyer:
Spring Flowers, Shopping and Wine
My foyer is another place I like to put a vase of tulips. Once again, I bought white ones but those tulips were starting to droop down a bit by the time I took the picture.
**Helpful tip: Someone mentioned on Instagram to put a penny in the water. Recently, I tried that with my latest tulip purchase and so far, so good! Really, I will do anything to keep them fresh longer! Apparently, the shape of the vase seems to help too. On this vase above, the top is wide so I think the flowers tend to fill out a little faster.
As you can see in the photo below, the tulips don’t droop as much when I use the vase with the narrow opening…
March 1st Table Setting on the Island
Obviously, I seem to go for the same look each year…this was last year’s spring counter setting. Either way, I never get tired of tulips in the spring!

This looks so fresh for spring! As the years go on, my holiday decor seems to be getting more and more simple. I'm adding tulips to my shopping list! have a wonderful weekend!
Your tulips are lovely throughout your home! I almost bought some today, but decided not to. I got some faux sedum at my grocery store instead.Brenda
Shelley, tulips are the perfect spring flower and you can never go wrong with white or pink! Happy weekend!
Love white tulips. They look great in your pretty house. Have a great weekend, Shelley.
I love tulips! And especially white ones! They just scream "spring" to me.Love your kitchen as always Shelly!Sheilaxo
Beautiful. I usually just pick flowers from our property to display inside. It's slim picking right now as I'm still waiting for the daffodils to be in full bloom. My favorite spring favorite is probably lilacs from our bushes. I absolutely love their fragrance, but they don't make it in a vase past a couple of days, unfortunately.
Tulips are always a winner in my book. You've used them beautifully around your home. I bring tulips home frequently. Love the look!
You make me want to go out and buy a bunch of tulips for my kitchen table. I also love them.
Tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths are the perfect spring flowers. Your tulips add a fresh breath of spring to your home. Very pretty!
Those chandeliers above the island though…..<3
I love tulips and all of the other spring flowers. I miss having them in my yard as I did up north. Thanks for sharing at Over The Moon Party.Hugs,Bev
Just gorgeous. Your home is lovely…especially with tulips. I want some!
Your tulips are exquisite! Your home is so inviting. I want to scroll through again. Lots of eye candy!
Tulips just scream Spring to me! Yours are beautiful.
I love tulips! My wedding bouquet was made out of them and the florist warned me they wouldn't last long but I really didn't care as long as they lasted long enough for the pictures. They're just so simple, clean lined, and happy feeling. Pinned.
Tulips are my all time favourite flower – well, maybe second to roses. I love them. I haven’t grown any in my own garden because I’m not sure whether is gets cold enough where I live to give them the hard frost that they need. These are stunning. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks Carol – I love them too! I only wish they lasted a little longer…
