I am such a HUGE fan of a great bud vase. A bud vase is the kind of floral decor I can get behind because it is so easy to keep up with!

This list is a compilation of unique bud vase ideas that you can easily DIY to decorate for a wedding, event, your dining room table, night stand or even wall art.
