Not too long ago I came into possession of a vase that simply didn’t go with any flowers whatsoever. That got me to thinking, there have got to be a lot of people with extra vases laying around, and never the flowers to fill them with. So I set out to find a series of practical uses for vases, and share them with you guys. Here goes, I hope you like them!
