Thinking Outside the Vase

Sometimes a small change in something pretty can make it stunning.



This flower arrangement was pretty.
But the metal florist vase just didn't do it justice.



So I pulled the foam base out and moved it into this vintage cachepot.


I can almost hear the arrangement saying, "Thank you."

Heartfully,

Eilis

    It's surprising how much difference just changing the vase can make. I think florist always use vases that are too small. Your arrangement it's new vase looks lovely!

    That is a beautiful arrangement and looks so much more grand in the vintage cachepot. Great idea!
