Quick Tip: Flexible Vases

I love a fabulous vase.  They just make the flowers look that much better.  They even smell better, don’t you think?  Well,  maybe that’s a stretch. =)  I also love their various shapes, sizes, and textures.

I recently came across a different sort of vase – a flat, flexible one.  Yep, flat and flexible in a variety of colors.  Flat means it’s easier to store (i.e., less clutter), and colorful means you can change things up a bit without breaking the bank.  Just fabulous!

Say It With Vases

These vases are simple and easy to use.
Just fill with water and add flowers.
Store flat when not in use.
Cost: $8/vase.

    Deb — These useful & pretty vases are made by my friend Jill Stern here in NYC, who’s full of inventive ideas like this! Great pickup — so practical. I’ll send her your link. She’ll be thrilled! Ann

    I almost bought one of these around the holidays, from Lee Valley. http://www.leevalley.com/gifts/page.aspx?c=2&cat=4,53213&p=50390 They were out of stock at the time, and I forgot to go back later to check it out. I was very intrigued, especially with the storage advantage (I currently have an entire cabinet filled with glass vases I rarely use). Looks like I will have to buy one, as recommended by Deb Lee, and hint to my husband to buy me flowers to “test it out!” ;)

    What a great idea!! I too have a shelf of vases collecting dust, not being used. this would be a terrific alternative. Thanks for the share.

    Deb — I emailed Jill yesterday and she was excited! Said she’d leave a comment, so I’m sure you’ll be hearing from her. I’m featuring your post in my own blog today, too :)

    Constance – Isn’t funny how many of us love vases but we don’t use them? Using a Jillable vase would be fun AND easy to store. If you try them out, let me know what you think. Thanks for leaving a comment!
