10 Easy Pieces: Single Stem Bud Vases

February 19, 2013

When I was 16, my very first job involved placing tiny stems of flowers in bud vases and I took it very seriously, carefully deciding which direction each steam was going to lean. It seems almost too easy, but to this day I'm convinced that there is a real art in the placement of a single stem. Here are ten ceramic and glass bud vases, each under the $30 mark, for displaying one or two stems of your liking.
