How to Decorate With Sea Coral in a Vase

A simple and elegant way to enhance a beach-themed room in your home is with a vase filled with faux sea coral and other sea-inspired pieces. Choose artificial coral that looks authentic without depleting the oceans. You can use the breezy decor piece to dress up a bare wall shelf, coffee table, desk, or even as a table centerpiece. Sea coral-filled vases also make thoughtful birthday and holiday gifts for any beach lovers in your life.

Instructions

- 1
  Choose a tall 15- to 20-inch glass vase to hold the coral arrangement. Pick a clear vase so that you can see the coral through it, or go with a blue glass vase to coordinate with the ocean theme.
- 2
  Pick a realistic-looking plastic or glass coral branch that is at least five inches taller than the vase so that it is visible at the top. Choose a clear or white coral branch, or go with a vibrantly hued one for an eclectic look.
- 3
  Fill one-quarter of the bottom of the vase with sand. Sprinkle small seashells and sea glass onto the sand to enhance the beach-inspired look.

  Nestle the end of the coral branch into the sand to create a secure hold, allowing the top of the decor to protrude out of the top of the vase like a bouquet.
