My boyfriend bought me flowers the other day, and had them delivered to my house. They are still beautiful, even four days later! The thing that wasn't so beautiful, the free vase that came along with it. Although each bouquet can't have its own personalized, brightly colored vase (not to mention its a free vase, so who's complaining?), you can jazz your vases up a little. Putting your own personal touches on plain vases gives you more options for each vase, and also prevents you from accumulating hundreds of various vases. I simply grabbed some ribbon from my vast collection, and tied it around the vase.
I didn't even try to make a bow, or anything fancy. I went with more of the, "Hey, I have some ribbon laying around, maybe I'll tie it on that vase" kind of feel.
Stop and smell the roses!
You can get funky with patterned ribbon, or experiment with different widths, colors, and textures. Let me know what you think. Have you ever put your own touches on 'Plain Jane' items?
