When it comes to DIY projects, nothing quite compares to working with fresh flowers. Not only do flowers add beauty to any space, but they also bring a sense of nature indoors. Whether you’re looking to decorate for an event or simply wanting to brighten your home, these 10 DIY flower projects are the perfect way to unleash your creativity. And as someone who’s been in the flower distribution world for years, trust me—there’s something incredibly satisfying about transforming blooms into art!
1. DIY Floral Wreath
Want to make your front door pop? A DIY floral wreath is the way to go. Using fresh flowers, you can create a seasonal wreath that’s both elegant and eye-catching.
Materials You’ll Need:
- A wireframe (available at most craft stores)
- Fresh flowers (choose long-lasting varieties like roses or eucalyptus)
- Floral wire and clippers
One thing I always tell customers is to choose flowers that match the season. In spring, think tulips and daisies, while in fall, rich-toned roses and greenery make a wreath truly stand out. And the best part? Making it yourself ensures it's unique to your home.
2. Flower Crowns
Planning a festival, wedding, or just want to channel your inner boho spirit? Flower crowns are a timeless, fun project.
Materials You’ll Need:
- Flexible wire for the base
- Floral tape
- Fresh flowers of your choice (smaller blooms like baby’s breath work beautifully)
As a flower wholesaler, I often hear from customers about how their flower crowns steal the show at events. My tip? Always mix in some greenery! Greenery like ferns or eucalyptus adds texture and depth to your crown, plus it’s a budget-friendly way to add volume. If you’re hosting a bridal shower, this is an amazing group activity that’s also practical!
3. Pressed Flower Art
If you’ve ever wished you could preserve the beauty of your favorite flowers, pressed flower art is your answer. It’s a great way to capture nature's beauty and turn it into timeless wall décor.
Materials You’ll Need:
- Heavy books or a flower press
- Parchment paper
- Picture frames
The key to pressing flowers successfully is patience. As someone who has seen endless flowers, I find that thick-petaled flowers like roses or pansies press beautifully and maintain their colour. Once they’re pressed, frame them for a chic, personalised touch to your home.
4. Flower-Infused Candles
Nothing sets the mood like candles, but when you add flowers, it’s an entirely new experience. Flower-infused candles are an easy way to incorporate nature into your home décor.
Materials You’ll Need:
- Soy wax
- Dried flowers
- Essential oils (lavender and rose are crowd favourites)
- Candle wicks and molds
I’ve always found lavender petals and rose buds to be the go-to favourites for this project. They not only look stunning encased in wax, but they also give off a subtle fragrance that lasts. Plus, these flowers are available in bulk through wholesalers like us, so you can stock up and create as many candles as you’d like.
5. DIY Flower Bouquets
Sometimes the simplest projects are the most satisfying. Designing your own bouquet allows you to experiment with colours, textures, and styles to create something uniquely yours.
Materials You’ll Need:
- Fresh flowers
- A vase
- Floral scissors and ribbon
When I work with customers on bouquets, I always tell them to start with a focal flower—roses, peonies, or even sunflowers. Then, build around it with filler flowers like baby’s breath or greenery. It’s all about layering textures and letting your personality shine through. It’s such a rewarding feeling when you’re able to put a beautiful bouquet on your dining table knowing you designed it yourself.
6. Floral Wall Hangings
Floral wall hangings are another minimalist but impactful DIY project. Whether you use fresh flowers or dried ones, this project adds an artistic, earthy vibe to any space.
Materials You’ll Need:
- String
- Wooden dowels
- Fresh or dried flowers
- Floral tape
For a longer-lasting decoration, dried flowers are a great choice. In my experience, customers love the rustic look of dried roses or hydrangeas hanging in their homes. Wholesale flowers allow you to purchase in bulk, so you can create multiple pieces to decorate different rooms!
7. Floral Soap Bars
Why not bring a touch of nature into your self-care routine? DIY floral soap bars are not only functional but also make for gorgeous gifts.
Materials You’ll Need:
- Soap base (melt-and-pour is easiest)
- Dried flowers (like chamomile, lavender, or calendula)
- Essential oils for scent
One of the things I’ve always enjoyed about working with wholesale flowers is how many creative uses there are for them, and this project is a perfect example. Lavender petals are particularly popular—they give your soap a natural exfoliant and a calming scent. And the best part? They look stunning, embedded right into the soap.
8. Flower Garland
Want to add a festive touch to your home or event? A flower garland is both fun and functional.
Materials You’ll Need:
- Twine
- Fresh or dried flowers
- Floral tape and scissors
If you’re throwing a party, this is a go-to décor item. From experience, I recommend using durable flowers like carnations or eucalyptus—they last longer and hold up beautifully. Hang them across a mantel or above a table for an effortless, boho vibe.
9. DIY Floral Centrepieces
Centrepieces don’t have to be complicated to be beautiful. Creating your own floral centrepiece adds a personal touch to your space, whether it’s for a party or just everyday décor.
Materials You’ll Need:
- A foam base or vase
- Fresh flowers
- Floral clippers
As someone in the wholesale flower industry, I always tell people to mix statement flowers with smaller filler blooms to create balance. Play around with height and shape to make it look full and dynamic. When you source your flowers in bulk, it becomes easy and affordable to make centrepieces for any occasion.
10. Dried Flower Shadow Box
Preserve your memories by turning dried flowers into beautiful shadow boxes. It’s a sentimental and creative way to display flowers from special events.
Materials You’ll Need:
- Shadow box
- Dried flowers
- Glue and decorative items
Roses, daisies, and baby’s breath tend to dry well and maintain their colour. As a wholesaler, I’ve seen how customers use dried flowers to make their memories tangible and long-lasting. It’s a project that’s both simple and meaningful.
