May I also recommend, if you haven't discovered them already, the classic cream glazed stoneware snuff jars? Old fashioned flowers simply arrange themselves in these beautiful containers.

I adore diminutive flower arrangements, such as the one you illustrate in your beautiful photograph. I use antique laboratory or apothecary beakers for such arrangements, or small Victorian jelly and syllabub glasses. When I was a child, I entered a competition at school to create a flower arrangement in an egg cup. Large arrangements may make a grand statement when appropriate, but it is the little jewel-like arrangements that really do capture my imagination and beguile.LizaEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17324813392045814368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-49036976615439678832012-04-11T13:50:27.528-04:002012-04-11T13:50:27.528-04:00Just perfect!
