December 15, 2012 -- paperwhites

I had been wanting to do something in this little blue vase (actually the base of an old oil lamp, I think), and today I decided to do it. The formality of the vase seemed to call for something sort of refined, so I clipped a cluster of flowers from some paperwhite daffodils that were blooming in the house. The nice green leaves came from some moneyplant growing outside, and there's one deeply-cut mustard leaf in this, too. That was leftover from some greens I picked for a sandwich at lunchtime!
