i went shopping with my mom a couple weeks ago for some wedding decor and noticed all these test tube vase decorations in the stores: i really am loving them. then i stumbled across betsy white's blog where she did a round up of some test tube vases. definitely an upcoming trend, what do you think of them? anyway, i decided to go on a hunt for test tube inspiration!

ReplyDeletethat is such a great idea! being a science major has finally come in handy! i have so many of test tubes laying around. i can finally put them to good use.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this look! what a great idea for your wedding!!! LOVE, LOVE, Love!
ReplyDeleteI had those for my wedding! I had bamboo in them also. What's awesome is that they are virtually unbreakable if they are truly test tubes.
ReplyDeleteRather in love with this concept.
ReplyDeletegorgeous photos. i bought my mother some fantastic vases from TARGET about 2 years ago. they remind me of these! lovely!

ReplyDeleteI never really loved the test tube vase as I've only seen them in the small variety that holds a single bloom and that's just not enough for me...but seeing all the wonderful varieties here I do believe I am changing my mind. The tear drop shaped tubes are especially wonderful. I've bought test tubes before for other crafty projects and I'm posting the link here as it is a great resource for this kind of thing: www.lcmlab.com
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your inspirations.
ooo I like the one from Urban!
ReplyDeleteThat is an inspirational collection! Thank you for including me!

Oh man! My mother has been using a set of test tubes as vases for YEARS! I always thought it was kinda quirky, but cool... maybe she'll let me hijack her set

ReplyDeletewow, they are all over the place! i love that first one. how sweet!
ReplyDeletei am totally loving this trend as well! so charming.
ReplyDeleteNice! I love it that they're so simple but so beautiful. I prefer the white ones though.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen this idea before but I'm crazy about it! There's something kind of minimalist about it, which is fun. I'm definitely going to try it sometime (:
ReplyDeleteI love your watch necklaces... I wish I bought one before your online store sold out!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you make some more when you are done with all your hard work with the wedding! :)

ReplyDeleteI love this idea too! I've been searching for vintage science doo-dads, especially test tubes and wooden test tube stands.
ReplyDeleteI loved them hanging... great ideas.
ReplyDeleteThis is so adorable! I work in a lab and right now I'm contemplating taking a few glass test tubes home!
ReplyDeleteLove this vase trend!
ReplyDeleteabsolutely gorgeous! <3
ReplyDeleteto tell you the truth, I've always loved small vases, some of them put together with in every one of them one beautiful flower. so much better than one big vase with a bunch of flowers in it. :)

I love this trend! I especially love the spice tower racks!
ReplyDeleteOh they are so pretty hanging from the outdoor umbrella!
ReplyDeleteOh, this makes my nerdy self very happy!
ReplyDeleteLove the Pigeon Toe Ceramic's ones. My friend did corked glass test tube favors full of juicy pear jelly beans (green was one of the wedding colors). A snack for guests and a great bud vase to take home (each one came with a little wooden block for a stand)...so cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. These test tubes made me start to think that I might actually like science.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this trend! My mom's a chemist and I have asked her to bring home a few test tubes for me to turn into vases in my new house. :)
ReplyDeleteYou should check out Angel Swanson's blog. She recently did a beautiful shoot using lots and lots of test tubes!
