Vases are very good at one thing and one thing only—holding your flowers, but can you say they ever made you laugh? If you’ve never seen a vase that put a smile on your face, that’s only because you’re a stranger to Sandra Apperloo’s quirky creations.
This pottery expert from the Netherlands is the mastermind behind the ceramics shop The Pottery Parade. She enjoys making all sorts of ceramics pieces, ranging from plates to ornaments, but Weirdo Bud Vases is definitely her signature product.
Each of the vases in this collection has a couple of common traits. They all have thin, lengthy bodies, fun facial expressions, and each one is covered with interesting prints, ranging from polka dots and flowers to leaves and other nature-inspired motifs.
Most of Apperloo’s Weirdo Bud Vases stand straight up, but some of them curve around each other into all sorts of interesting shapes. These vases won’t fit an entire bouquet and only have enough room for a single branch or flower, but that’s exactly their charm.
