It's a small flower pot. But the larger Chinese "fishbowl" vases can often be found at Pier 1 and on eBay. I used to have one on a pedestal, but it could be used as a base for a table if you removed the pedestal. Is that the one you meant? It’s not a floor vase. It’s a small flower pot.

I scored mine at an auction for $5. It came with an end table but I didn't have any way of getting it home due to space in the car.

That milk glass vase/tumbler is lovely. Reminds me of my childhood. My grandmother's house was FILLED with milk glass. I would sit on the floor in front of the china cabinet and stare at it and wonder how they made it so white, yet still see through. Alas, it all perished in a fire back in the 80's. I've been seriously thinking of starting my own collection, but I just don't know where I'd put it. Ooh. That milk glass vase/tumbler is lovely. Reminds me of my childhood.

The coffee table is like the one I had when my kids were about 5 and 1. I've never done a faux finish. I have taken a foot locker and redid it. I sanded the metal then primered it and then painted and put designs on it. I redid a chair also. I wish I knew how to use the digital camera. My son always has to dowload it for me. I have to show you the cabinet. I was really proud of myself. I would love to be able to paint my bedroom in the marble effect that I have seen. But I don't know how to do it. I love the vase.
