Comments about RECYCLED BOTTLE SPRING VASES:

Not worth the money spent. The base is rusty ~~ even for a recycled piece. The vase is to tall for the shape of the "spring" holder. I hate to pay the shipping to send back but it is way to expensive to keep.

i would have never bought this product if i knew it was going to look the way it did. i bought it as a gift for someone and when i opened it i wouldn't even think twice about giving it to someone. it honestly looks like a piece of garbage wrapped around the color vase i did not select.
