When no vase is available, what have you used in it's place?

I've used those thngs that Rox listed, and mason jars
and once a paint can... the most interesting vase I use
regularly is an antique tin milk jug.
It was my Grandad's lunch pail when he was in school.

Me too... I love the idea of my grumpy Granddad
as a grade school kid!
lt's not very large - about 8 inches high and then the
neck and lid. It's about 8 inches in diameter. Kinda short
and squat. It's dull white-silver tin. Not a bit glamorous
and one of my favorite things.

Now, what would you do if you woke up in the morning and your flowers were in your coffee pot? lmao!!

Hi, Bree!
Well, since I don't drink coffee... [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I use coffe pots for vases - we have a BUNCH! of 'em
that went camping... NOT the one Greg makes his coffee in!

Interesting question giggle

Hmmm ... probably ... a Coke bottle $don\'t know$

by Breezey Breezey Sun Oct 10, 2010 2:47 pm

It was and is the coffee pot I use each day. I couldn't have coffee until I found a new spot for those flowers. lol

Can you picture flowers, with really long stems, hanging out of the glass part of this pot? lol

I asked for the flowers to be put in something and that was it!

Jack, coke bottles are another good one! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Perhaps... you need to be clearer ? [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I'm trying to remember if I've ever used a
coke bottle - probably. I seem to remember
a long-stemmed rose...
