First Spring Flowers!

It may only feel slightly Spring-ish around here, but we at least have some Spring flowers to show for it!  One of my favorite things to do is save interesting glass bottles to use for vases for flowers from my garden.  Okay so mostly because I don't own many vases, but also because it's so fun to give flowers to friends and be able to give them a real "vase" that they can keep too.
This one is a maple syrup bottle.  I still haven't taken the label off, though, so I took a picture from the side.  (hopefully you can't tell?)  I just LOVE having fresh flowers around and it's even more satisfying, somehow when they come from my yard- a little bit of cheapness, a little bit of bragging rights, and fresh beauty, all in one little glass container.

I love this picture! It's so, like, rustic and pretty.

Nope, can't tell that the label is still on. It looks like the bottle is reflecting the color of the wood it is on.
