Grape Hyacinth

3.18 Grape Hyacinth 1


You know my penchant for re-purposing glass vinegar bottles and Coke bottles to serve as vases.

This Spega la Natura yogurt jar is perfect for short-stemmed flowers.

I only have two jars though. At around $3 for two little jars, it's too expensive for me to indulge in.

  2. Hi there, found you through food gawker.

    I repurpose my food jars! I think it's something my mother passed down to me - we both have our "perfect" jars for storing "the perfect" amount of stock, for storing odds and ends like buttons, screws, nuts & bolts...and now that its spring, I'm going to make a terrarium out of a larger pasta sauce jar and some thyme.

  3. Oanh,
    Haha. Yeah, they're rather like weeds, but pretty!

    Jessica,
    I use jars for buttons too. A terrarium sounds so cool.

    Tania,
    Thanks!
