One Dollar Decorating

I have seen so many fantastic purchases from thrift stores lately that I decide to pay my local Salvation Army a visit to see what I could find. While I didn’t come home with an undiscovered treasure, I did manage find these wonderful milk glass vases. The total cost for all five – one dollar.
As the saying goes, there is power in numbers. I love how they look all grouped together and filled with coordinated flowers on this silver tray.  The simplicity of the white color and the different textures and shapes of the vases creates a wonderful display.
They also look pretty lined up across a fireplace mantel.
My original intent when I purchased the vases was to use them as gifts for friends. Fresh flowers are always wonderful to give or receive and when they arrive in a pretty vase it is an added bonus. Some of these vases will undoubtedly find their way into other homes but most, I think, will end up staying here.
