It's a Vase????

I always have a problem finding the right vase for the flowers that I get. The openings are either to small or too large. Instead of using the "normal" glass or porcelain vase, explore your house and come up with some cute alternatives.

Here are some ideas:
  1. Tea cup
    1. Trim the stem low
    2. You can use a variety of cups to spice it up.
  2. Plastic water bottle
    1. This is good especially at work, when you need a quick go-to vase.
    2. You can also tie a piece of fabric or tulle around the bottle to hide the label.
  3. Colored bottles
    1. You can find these at yard sales or at a thrift shop.
  4. Water glasses
    1. This is an easy fix and you should have plenty in your kitchen.
  5. Gourd or pumpkin
    1. Hollow out the center and use it to house your fall flowers.
  6. A light bulb
    1. No joke! I found this idea on Pinterest
  7. Mason Jar
    1. This is especially cute during the fall.
  8. ______________
    1. Be creative; if an object has a mouth or an opening, there is a good chance you can use it as a vase.

You can also have alot of fun dressing up "average" bottles. Go explore! - rejoicing in the present
