Vase Ideas

8.27.2011

 The theme this week at the SNS party at Funky Junk Interiors is "things as vases". I went through some of my stored photos and found several ideas I have shared in the past. I thought I would share these again for the party.

vintage mason jars

vintage coffee kettle

planter

ironstone sugar bowl and silver revere bowl

pottery

iron lattice bowl

ironstone pitcher


vintage picnic basket

There are so many different items to be used as vases.

Hope our friends along the path of hurricane Irene stay safe.

    I enjoy using pitchers for vases too. Must make use of the things we have... :-)

    Beautiful photos! I inherited a knack/interest in flower arranging from my mother. Often, I hear her speaking to me, as I place a flower or pick the vase. Beautiful, fresh flowers add so much to a room, and one of my favorite things about summer is to be able to walk out into the garden and pick what will soon become a beautiful arrangement!

    GORGEOUS, as always. Something almost meditative about visiting your blog, it's so calming and inspiring.

    Vintage mason jars are my all time favorite vases! You have lots of others I admire, too. ;)

    Funny that you should put this post up, when just this morning I was looking at my vase shelf and thinking that it needs a good clearing out and a trip to drop some off at the Salvation Army store.

    Great ideas Kim. I use pitchers all the time for flowers, my favorite is filling them with tulips. Have a great weekend! We're busy putting all the patio furniture in the shed just in case Irene hit's hard! Martina

    Wonderful ideas Kim. I have an Ironstone coffee pot I bought without a lid (and it was really inexpensive that way) to hold flowers. I love the basket idea.

    Beautiful... I am not a big fan of red, but the tulips in the coffee pot is GORGEOUS! :)

    Thank you so much. I have been sitting here since the Hurricane passed doing nothing but being bored, eating and facebooking. Your post has put me in the mood to go "play" with some pretties. Love all your pics.
