A tall narrow crystal vase that I bought from an op shop in Ballarat is this week’s Vintage Vase. I design with apricot carnations which I am absolutely obsessed with. In this video my audio is provided as a voice over recorded later.

In this video I had some technical issues and so it has a VoiceOver rather than in time audio. The vase is a beautifully thick strong glass vase in a tea drop shape, and was made in the 1980’s. The display is designed to be viewed all round and has iris, stock and carnations.

I choose a beautiful trough shaped compote in colour tones of brown and turquoise and design with cabbage orange/yellow dahlia and pink roses.

The vintage vase is a very low trough shaped vase, and I use chicken wire as the floral mechanic to display dahlia and late season roses. The end display is very full of blooms, it’s bright and vibrant and is a beautiful design for display on a long dining table.

Beautiful small brown glazed ceramic vessels from Bendigo Pottery are the vases for this Vintage Vase Club video, and small late season dahlia are the flower or choice. At the end I incorporate the whole display that I put together for a grazing table, it includes sunflowers in a matching glazed vase.

This Vintage Vase Club features a beautiful low and round brown glazed vase that I recently bought from an auction. I use chicken wire to create the mechanics for adding sunflowers. This vase is part of a larger display that I designed for a grazing table, you see all vases together at the end of the video.

We use a small crystal bowl with a kenzan to design this simple display with green hanging amaranthus, lime zinnia and blue hydrangea.

An incredibly beautiful and wonderfully weird vase is the focus for this Vintage Vase Club. I arrange the flowers (mixed coloured cosmos) in my hand and add to the vase.

In this short video I show you how to attach a kenzan to a vessel using floral tack.

A crystal bowl is the vessel for this Vintage Vase Club, and I use a kenzan as the floral mechanic. The flowers are dahlia, roses and phlox.

A beautiful low horse shoe vase, perfect for display on a table and with a candle placed in its centre, is the vessel for this week’s vintage vase club. The flowers include viburnum snow ball and achillea.

This video was recorded in late October and features white Waratah, a special bloom that can be challenging to grow and so we see much fewer of them than the red varieties. The vase is a tall blue vase in the shape and design of an owl, it is a vase hard to find flowers to compliment it as the vase is so striking, and so the striking white waratah are the perfect bloom.

This cookie jar style glass vase is available for purchase from Apple’s Annie’s stall, # 330, in the Castlemaine Bazaar. The flowers I design with are Jerusalem sage, lupins, sweet pea and carnations.

Taking advantage of my bok choy going to seed, I pulled out a plant and show you how you can display such a specimen, displayed here in an old Fowler jar.

In this episode of Vintage Vase Club we use chicken wire as the floral mechanic to design orange and red ranunculus in a trough shaped compote vase.

This video explains what Vintage Vase Club is, what you'll get out of it, and shares skills in designing into a beautiful circular vessel using white ranunculus, pear blossom and pittosporum foliage.

In Vintage Vase Club this week we designed using crystal vases and bright spring flowers of poppies, gium and ranunculus. The vases were later used with other vases to decorate for a spring lunch event catered by the Maine Foodstore.

Ali celebrates the beauty of tulips with their bulbs still attached in the incredibly versatile Fowler's Jars. Glass beads or small pebbles are also used to help prop the bulbs up out of the water to avoid root rot.

Vintage Vase Club for this week demonstrates how you can use any small vessel that you have to display florals. It is a small crystal jug with fragrant purple hyacinth.

This is the first Vintage Vase Club. The vessels were made in 1980 by Bendigo Pottery. Wattle and eucalyptus are the florals that Ali designs with, the display is curated to be displayed in Wild, a local restaurant.

This Vintage Vase Club is using purple kale, lemon stock in a scalloped trough compote.

Using a collection of vintage and reclaimed glass bottles, I display white freesias in a simple yet effective display.

This week’s vase is a low shell shaped vase. I use a kenzan as my mechanics and the fowers are white ornamental kale.
