wonder-ful vases

Kelli of There's No Place Like Home hosts Show & Tell Friday.
Be sure to check out all the cool stuff being shared this week.

********************

I have something interesting to share for today's Show & Tell. It's called WonderVase and I bought a package at the women's expo I attended a couple of weeks ago.


The package contains three separate plastic looking bags
that transform into vases.


Here are the instructions:

~fill with warm water
~hand form vase into desired shape
~empty warm water and re-fill vase with cool water
~place flowers in vase!

To re-use:

~empty vase
~rinse in warm water; smooth flat


The plastic is pliable when in contact with the warm water but then the cool water sets it and the vase then keeps it's shape.

You can decorate the plastic with paint pens or anything you want to glue to it. I thought they were pretty cool
and figured I'd get a lot of use out of them.

  5. Very interesting and what a creative idea! Do they always stand upright or do they tip over easily?
