Want a vase that is not only unusual but pretty and can be changed out in a moment?
Here it is: A gift bag!
Gift bag bud vase... lots of different sizes of bags to choose from.
I put a plain glass vase (with water) in a gift bag.
I put flowers in.
Done.
I picked a pretty floral gift bag in a bright pink color.
Couldn't resist taking a few "artsy" pictures of the tulips either.
Doesn't it look nice on my mother's table? It kind of goes with her pink theme.
Then, of course, I had to search the internet to see what other unusual flower vases were out there. They are out there, people. They are out there. These are the most interesting, unusual ones I found and most are DIY.
Have a ball, people, looking at gift bags to be used for impromptu vases.
Milk carton vase Ha ha ha.. everyone has these. Next time I can't find a vase...
Glass vase cover - full tutorial using Graphics Fairy graphics.
Painting on brown bag vases. I LOVE THIS.

Oranges in a vase... I've seen lemons also.
How about a pretty drinking glass vase with a ribbon?
Colored glass vases that are all the same color. Very pretty.
Here's something different and pretty... a rose petal covered vase.
Country Farm Wedding vases.... :)
Painted milk bottle vases
Colored pencil vase. Colorful and cute!!
Is this going to be enough to keep you busy for a while? Of course, I want to make them all.
Do you think you'll do any of these?
Have a great day!!
