10 Ways to Decorate with Tulips

For several weeks now I have been seeing a little sign in the stores that spring is not far away…the arrival of tulips…both fresh and faux! They are not only one of my favorite flowers but also one of my favorite ways to add color to my home! And… they are so versatile! Just in case you are as excited about these wonderful gems as I am, I thought I would share my favorite ways to use them!


CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT DIY Spring Tulip WreathI have to share my favorite first…my DIY SPRING TULIP WREATH! I can’t wait for it to get warm enough for me to put it on my front door! Doesn’t it just say spring? You will find the directions HERE.

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT A Simple Spring TablescapeA multitude of tulips fill the basket centerpiece in my SIMPLE SPRING TABLESCAPE. Add more texture with woven chargers, a bunny at each place and a pretty patterned napkin and you are good to go!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT A French Country SpringIt’s also easy to add a few tulips by simply dressing up their pot! In my FRENCH COUNTRY SPRING CENTERPIECE, I covered the pot with Kraft paper featuring music notes.

Ahhh! Tulip time is here at last! :-)

  1. Bonjour Debbie!
    Seriously, I didn’t think there was anyone else that loved dishes as much as I do! I found your site through Stonegable and just love how you own up to this obsession. I rarely do much entertaining anymore and do miss setting a full fledged lovely table, but both my husband and I enjoy sitting down to a nice setting each night. Looking at these blogs is like eating candy-I just can’t seem to get enough! We will be traveling to Paris in May so I hope to be able to find a few flea markets and a treasure or two that will fit in my suitcase. Seeing how you collect so many different styles has let me broaden my search! Thanks so much for showing all these lovely photos

  3. Love all your tulip projects! Your pictures just make me want to get out my faux spring flowers and cut some forsythia branches to force into bloom! Thanks so much for a breath of spring!

  4. Debbie!!! So many gorgeous tulip decor ideas. Of course, your tulip wreath has been so popular, and is still just so lovely and those sweet white bunnies in the little basket are adorable! If you have time, would love for you to link up at Homestyle Gathering via My Wee Abode! ;-)
