Everyone loves decorating with glass Christmas balls. They're fairly inexpensive, come in several colors and patterns, and have the perfect amount of Christmas bling!
Of course, they look great on the tree, but did you ever imagine
they could also make a pretty amazing vase!
Just remove the silver cap, fill with water and add your favorite flower. You will need to add some tiny pebbles or sand to weight the bottoms if you want them to stand alone.
They look pretty cool when grouped together to form a super easy centerpiece.
I filled several glass pieces - that I've picked up from thrift stores - with amber glass rocks. I added LED candles among the rocks of some of them. (Tip - put the candle in upside down so it will be easier to turn it on and off.) Add a flower adorned ornament vase
to each glass piece and your done! SUPER EASY!!

Absolutely stunning! I would never have thought of that, how clever you are! x
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea, Kathy! ...beautifully simple. You and I have a lot in common in that we started designing playing with flowers. I, too, owned a floral design business. I specialized in weddings and special events. And have been playing in mixed media jewelry art for only about 6 years. Your jewelry designs are wonderful, your wirework fabulous. Congrats on all of your publications and successes. Thank you for dropping by my blog for a visit. I will be back to visit often. Take care. Wishing you and your family a blessed holiday season.
