Trio of Red Vases - Oh La La
In my new apartment there is a built in entertainment center kind of, it's hard to explain. On both sides of it though there are 3 cubby holes and I've been trying to come up with ideas of what to put in them. I wanted everything to be streamlined so it didn't look cluttered. After another trip to Ikea on Friday I decided to do a bunch of flowers and different sized vases in each cubby. My main colors that I picked were yellow, orange, and red.
These Salong vases are just one of a few different kinds of vases that I purchased. They had these available in red, white, opaque black, and a light gold color. I decided on the red as you can see, and each vase was different, some being darker, and others more see through. Each vase is mouth blown and shaped by a craftsman so each is very unique.
There were three different sizes available so I got a set of them. These little guys are going to find their home in one of my six cubbies. The smallest one which only stands about 3 inches was $4.99, the next is 7 3/4 inches for $6.99, and the tallest was about 12 inches for $8.99. I have yet to decide if I want to put fake flowers in these or leave them how they are.
Ikea is a great place to find very unique vases. Plus for each one being mouth blown by a individual artist, I think you are getting them for a GREAT price!

Those are beautiful. I love that color!
I'm afraid to go in that huge store. I'm not sure my wallet can handle it.
I think you are really a big fan of this store. The vases are very nice looking and would be cool in an entertainment cubby. Hope you enjoy them!
Forego the flowers...the vases are pretty all by themselves. And the prices weren't bad either.
These are very classy looking, and I love that they are individually made!
I really love the red! The variety of shapes that you picked up look really nice together.
I have various color Ikea vases from 6 years ago and I still love them!
Very pretty vases. Love the bold color.
These look like something I'd love! I find thick red glass very beautiful.
The red glass is so beautiful. And I am totally envious of your trips to IKEA.
These are really cute and so affordable! Now, if they were just in an iris blue.....lol.
You made a good choice in buying three unique red vases in different sizes. I don't think they need flowers in them. They can be enjoyed just as they are.
Another great product from Ikea, they do have such a wide variety of things to decorate your home. Thanks
These are so nice. I love them what a great IKEA find!
I am going to call you the Ikea Queen! What neat vases these are! They look much more expensive than what you paid for them!
This set looks very rich. I'm certain they make a great statement in your new apartment.
My wife loves the color red, and these would match our sofa!
I like the cranberry color! That's my accent in my livingroom. :-)
