DIY Artificial Flower Urn Arrangements: 1 Urn 3 Looks

Get ready for another fun, easy DIY project because today we are going to show you how to make three beautiful artificial flower urn arrangements using one easy technique. A beautifully arranged urn can be used in many different ways to add texture, color, and warmth into a space. Unfortunately, arrangements using real flowers can be challenging to make and maintain. We made the whole process of having beautiful foliage on display year-round by trading out real flowers for top-quality artificial varieties. Once you see how easy it is to make these DIY artificial flower urn arrangements, you are going to want to feature them in at least one or two places around your home.

DIY Artificial Flower Urn Arrangements: 1 Urn 3 Looks

Artificial Flower Urn Arrangements
All three of the looks we are about to show you were started with one single urn. For this projects, we chose the Oakland Living 18-Inch Cast Iron Outdoor Roman Urn. This urn is a nice, heavy choice, ideal for outdoor spaces. The urn itself features classic style lines for a traditional look. You can choose any urn you like, as long as you opt for one with enough weight that it will not easily blow over on a gusty day. We also decided to use artificial flowers and greenery as our urn filler because it is low maintenance and stays looking beautiful throughout the year.

Once you have chosen your urn, it is all about how you are going to fill it. Let’s take a look at how we used this single urn to create three completely different floral arrangements. Before you can make any of the arrangements below, you must first prepare your pot by filling it with either rocks and soil or by filling it with outdoor grade wet florist foam. This will act as a foundation in which you can place the stems.

Arrangement 1: Boxwood, Azalea & Polycaise

The first arrangement we are going to talk about today is this
lovely, floral urn. Two colors of beautiful azaleas give this
arrangement a bit of a feminine flair.

What You’ll Need:

  • 9 Boxwood Stems
  • 3 White Azalea Bushes
  • 2 Cream Azalea Bushes
  • 1 Polycaise
Arrangement 1 Step 1

Step 1:

We like to start by putting the most plentiful component of your arrangement into the urn first. In this case, that would be the boxwood bushes. We used nine stems of boxwoods to fill up this urn. The boxwood acts as a rich greenery and an important foundation for the rest of the arrangement to come. Simply place each stem down into the soil or foam and spread out the branches slightly.

Step 2:

After your boxwood stems are all in place you can move on to the next most plentiful filler. In this case, that would be our gorgeous white azalea bushes. Place two of these nice, full bushes into your urn in the same manner you did the boxwoods.

Step 3:

With the white azalea bushes in place, we thought it was time to add a fun pop of color. The pink azalea bush was the perfect way to do just that. A single stem was all it took to infuse a fun and cheerful color to this beautiful arrangement.

Step 4:

The final component of our urn is now in place. We put a single polycaise stem in the urn to add another depth of color and texture. The result is a beautiful urn that will be right at home in traditional settings.

This same process was used to create two alternative urn arrangements. Instead of going trhough the whole process again, we will simply show you the list of components each urn was created with and a photo timeline of how each urn was created.

Arrangement 2: Liriope, Barberry & Grass

The second arrangement has a little more of an autumn inspiration. Different grasses and barberry stems in various hues make this an attractive arrangement with many different textures.

What You’ll Need:

  • 4 Burgundy Barberry
  • 4 Light Gren Barberry
  • 4 Grass

If you are interested in a more garden-inspired urn, our third arrangement may be the most inspiring. Beautiful, reaching florals are the star of the show for this third urn arrangement. Let us show you how easy it was to create this spectacular arrangement.

Arrangement 3: Ivy & Impatiens

When you want a more sprawling, garden look, the third arrangement may be just what you are looking for. This beautiful combination of Ivy and impatiens occupies just as much horizontal space as vertical space.

What You’ll Need:

  • 5 Ivy
  • 2 Cream Impatiens
  • 1 Pink Impatiens

It is time to decide. Which of these beautiful urn arrangements is your favorite? The beauty of making DIY Artificial Urn Arrangements is that you can really customize them to meet the specific needs of your home. If one of these three arrangements didn’t quite appeal to you, try your own variation. A 16-Inch boxwood ball is the perfect one-step filler for one of these urns. A 45-Inch fern also makes a great choice.
