A makeshift vase?

[Lawks]

Somebody has given me a beautiful bunch of roses and I quite literally can't find anything to use as a makeshift vase.

They are currently in the bathroom basin.

(I don't have a vase because I've recently 'started again'.)

Help Mumsnet. Point out the obvious to me. Surely there must be something in my house that would do as a vase?

Pitcher / large jug
Bucket
Bin?

2 litre plastic water bottle, cut the top off with scissors. Ant take label off!

No jug or pitcher. bucket too large. No bin.

Will hunt for a water bottle. Good thought. Don;'t know if I have one.

Storage or utensil jar?

One of those tall pasta jars?

Failing that, a quick nip to Wilko's?

a pint glass

I know someone who used her wellies on one occasion.

Loo brush holder of course I'm sure you don't have something so grimy .

Could you create one of those cellophane water-filled type bags that you can buy flowers in (although don't ask me how they do it )

lol @ wellies.

And no no no no no to suggestions.

Have been through cupboards in case I could empty out the contents of a big jar or something, but no big jars.

They're in the nappy bucket for now. They don't look very pretty in it!

Will investigate garden.

chop stems off and float em in a bowl?

If you have a garden, fill pot with soil or compost and stick stems in, oasis-style!

I found an old coffee jar outside. Looks lovely!
