Hi chasdevlin,
I was wondering about the term: 'Bucket vase', (which I think it does suggest - searched and got loads of metal flower containers), but didn't think I'd seen it anywhere, so wasn't sure. Hadn't thought of Beaker - will check that out.
The blue colour is much lighter than the actual darker blue - will have to try and adjust my camera (but haven't the foggiest how to do that!)
Thank you for giving me another avenue to check out.
All the best,
Marie.
