The bud vases  by louannwarren

The bud vases

I have had a dozen bud vases in their boxes in my guest room closet since my wedding reception 23 years ago. A classmate and I decided to have flowers at our luncheon, I was thrilled to remember the bud vases! We put a single red rose in each vase, they looked lovely on the narrow luncheon table. After the luncheon they each went home with a classmate. For “Red” on one week only.
Very decorative, they look gorgeous.

@carole_sandford @onewing thank you so much! The vases and their story turned out to be quite a conversation starter. Everyone started talking about things they have that have a history and how hard they are to get rid of, especially to sell to strangers. I was happy that the vases went home with friends.

What a great way to make some space at home- and now they'll be treasured by their new owners. So pretty!

They look fabulous and what a great idea to let friends have them.

I once gave something to a friend that I had not used in years. Suddenly I needed it after all that time and had to buy a new one as the friend moved back overseas ;-)
