If you have many simple vases, you can conjure up a very special one with this tip.

Beautify simple vases with raffia and artificial flowers

What you’ll need:

Vase
raffia (available in craft stores or stationery shops (e.g., Pagro)
possibly artificial flowers
possibly real flowers

Crafting instructions for the raffia vase

Simply wrap the raffia around the vase several times and tie the ends into a bow. If you like, you can also tuck small artificial flowers or even real flowers between the raffia, which gives the whole thing a summery touch.
