I tried and I tried but I could not get a good photograph of this vase. The colors are much lighter in person. I am not sure why it is so bla and brown! I am looking at it right now and there is no dark brown pieces at all. They resemble different shades of parchment paper, not dull brown! I loved the flowers on my dinning room table so much I bought another bunch of white flowers for the living room.

I wish I would have saved all the vases I have received over the years. I would cover them all with tissue paper. I did find two in the basement. All you need to do is tear up pieces of tissue paper and glue them to the vase. I really like the finished vase, no matter how it photographed. I will blame it on anther gray winter day. That is becoming my excuse for everything! Don't feel like cleaning, blame it on the weather! Having a bad hair day, blame it on the weather! Eating way to much junk, blame it on the weather! Spending way too much time on the computer, blame it on the weather! I guess I will have to come up with another excuse in the springtime. Ah, yes I will blame it on the rain! It rains a lot here in the spring!

Thanks for visiting!
