A while back I got the idea to paint calla lilies. They are so austerely beautiful and I had in mind to paint some white ones. Having said that, finding some up here in the north country in March is another story. I had to order some mini-calla lilies online which came in a bouquet of 10 pink and 10 white and cost $50. I also ordered the square vase for another $10 because it looked perfect with the lilies in the picture.
Well, never believe the picture in an ad. When they arrived, the vase was HUGE, way too big for the little lilies. I was scrambling to find a vase before my $50 investment bit the dust. After watching some You Tube videos on flower arranging, one of the presenters suggested Crate and Barrel as a good source of interesting vases. I went down to my local store and came away with a pretty good haul of vases, the most interesting being the Ono vase, which is a round vase with a hole in it. Very interesting and very contemporary. Hope you like them.
