Alice's Christmas Present

My great aunt Alice dropped her Waterford crystal vase on the stone flags a few weeks ago it smashed to bits. When I asked her what she would like for Christmas, she said she would like a new vase, at 93 I begrudge buying her anything new, so I was just wondering, could this old toilet brush holder that's been kept under my kitchen sink for years, pass for a vase?

  1. Yes! It's a delightful work of art!

    PS: Maybe have Carmen clean it a little before wrapping.

  2. Absolutely! It's also probably less likely to "rearrange its parts" than a crystal one.

  3. I think it's absolutely charming, combining minimalism with hand made decorations. Wrap that bitch up and done.

  4. Do you not have something in plastic? Plastic would survive an unfortunate accident.
