Pretty Porcelain

I woke up this morning very excited about a new vase that my lovely BF Alex bought for me last night after we finished watching the new Pixar movie UP (a must see by the way!!) and slurping up ramen in Little Saigon. I can't find a picture online of the exact one I got, but you get the idea from this. Instead of being a bowl, mine is a cylindrical and tall (about 20"). I'm trying to figure out what to put in it... fresh peonies from TJs?

This got me thinking about all the cute little porcelain things that are on my proverbial wish list. If only I had the room (and money) for all of them. When Alex bought my present last night, I believe his exact words were, "I can't believe that I just encouraged you buying yet another vase that we don't have room for." Thanks honey! I'm glad you understand me :)

But I have this plate along with 2 other Fornasetti plates and I don't see myself stopping here); Sara Paloma Matte Bottle Collection $750.
