A while ago I bought six tumblers from the Pound shop & made some little vases from Cypress.
After turning I carved then torched & scorched the vase & finished with spray lacquer.
I made the flowers from branch wood using the point of a skew.
I wanted to give it a rustic look.

The glass is full Bill with delightfull flowers in your designed vase sure answer to the in between flowering season and then such a delight in colour contrast to the vessel. The vessel with the flowers holds the imagination to a new l:claps:evel IMHO.
