My sister knows I'm always looking for containers so she gave me the square glass one pictured above. She found it at the D.I. and it used to have a candle in it. She took the candle part that she wanted and gave me the rest. I love taking old things, putting a little work into them, and seeing the true potential come out. The ribbon is also upcycled. It came on a Christmas gift from my sister-in-law. The rest (flowers, potpourri, and decorative marbles) I bought new. So look around your house, find some old things and think of some fun transformations. I call it giving them a good old Oprah-style makeover. If you listen very carefully you'll hear loud gasps and applause as your item makes its debut to the world.
