I really like the straw one, great colors and shall make for a very interesting arrangement I am sure.
I have found that now that I have met you almost everything I own can be converted to a vase!

That is so true Candee, anything goes!! It might take a while to work out the mechanics but I see potential in all sorts of things that may work as a container.
