ECONO-CHIC

How cool is this? A beautiful, functional piece of art. I love the organic form. This is a hand-blown sea urchin vase from Urban Indigo and you CANNOT believe what a great deal it is. Urban Indigo has some very unique gift items for the creative person who doesn't get excited over the generic types of gifts that most stores stock. Something fresh and totally "econo-chic"!

I'm drawn more and more to sea themed objects for the home - they feel organic without being frilly. This is a really neat piece!

I was just at Pottery Barn and saw PLASTIC sea urchin salt and pepper shakers there - for $30. I immediately thought of this beautiful little hand made vase for $10! Take that, box store.

Funnily enough, I have three of these little glass vases -- in different shapes and sizes.

Anything I snip from the garden goes straight into one of them.
