It always seems to happen that halfway through the day on a friend's birthday I realize I haven't done my gift shopping... and that's when I opt for running to the market and creating a beautiful bouquet of flowers. The only problem - what to put them in? Most places carry those HIDEOUS generic glass vases that I promptly throw away. Solution? Stock up on this vase cover from designer Tord Boontje that I found while browsing the Koo de Kir website.
This lovely piece from the coveted designer easily wraps around a vase and is a gift in itself! I'm thinking of keeping a stash in my car for emergencies from now on :)
