I love, love, love my new antique rose cups and marble vase. Reblog if you love treasure hunting at antique shops. 🙂
I’m absolutely smitten with these antique crystal rose cups I found at my favorite antique shop in East Texas. At first my mom and I thought they were drinking glasses, but the shop owner explained that they were actually made for floating roses. I bought these months ago and hardly a day has gone by without flowers in these cups. I don’t just use them for roses, obviously, and now I have the perfect place to throw loose flowers that fall off of arrangements.I found this marble vase at the same antique shop. It’s sturdy enough to go outside, but too pretty not to have in the house. Normally I find wide-mouthed vases frustrating to arrange but these purple flowers (how embarrassing that I’ve forgotten the name!) lay so perfectly carefree in this vase, and I love the way the purple complements the yellow placemats.
