For The Flowers

I'm hanging onto summer by my fingernails and still clipping the roses to bring inside, even the tiny little dried up buds that never quite enjoyed their full blooming glory. What to do with the endless summer bouquet? Why, put it in a handmade vase, of course!

This a Large Upcycled Glass Vase from Twofold Designs is handmade from recycled magazine pages and features a water resistant gloss finish and glass interior....bring in the sunflowers!



This Multicolor Raku Cylinder Vase from Madstone Raku might compete with your flowers for attention, but its sleek design makes it a lovely piece long after the flowers are gone.



The Mountain Mist Sculptural Vase from Rising Sky Pottery is a truly artful design for a smallish wildflower display. Includes one mysterious portal underneath.


Some poppies for your poppies. The Sunshine Poppy Garden vase from Love Art Works has a contemporary hand painted design that's positively playful. And, I'll let you in on a little secret...it's yellow inside!


One or two flowers would look just right projecting from the small opening in this organic, nature-inspired ceramic vase from Claytastic

Ah, Summer....parting is such sweet sorrow!

Candles

The Latin word "candere" means to flicker.

According to Wikipedia, a candle is a source of light and sometimes a source of heat consisting of a solid block of fuel (commonly wax) and an embedded wick.

As the mass of solid fuel is melted and consumed, the candle grows shorter. Portions of the wick that are not evaporating the liquid fuel are consumed in the flame. The incineration of the wick limits the exposed length of the wick, thus maintaining a constant burning temperature and rate of fuel consumption.

OK, that’s the information bit now let’s see what we can find with the Interior Design Team!
