Flowers to Fit

A few months ago a friend brought me a present, gorgeous vase as a "house/hostess gift."  Handmade ceramics, low, but very heavy.  It sat empty on my livingroom window sill.  Then a few days ago I was given a humongous bunch of flowers, much to much, too thick and too heavy for my glass vases.  Suddenly I remembered the ceramic one.  I cut down the flowers, so they wouldn't be too high, out of proportion and possibly even fall out or fall over.

Just perfect!

I don't know what I would have done with them if I hadn't gotten the vase beforehand.
