I suppose it was inevitable that I’d stumble across this little chunk of hideousness. Having already got a Teddy Bear Vase in blue I should have realised that someone somewhere out there would have one in pink.

It’s so obvious, everything for babies are either blue for boys, pink for girls, or yellow because we don’t know what sex the baby will be when it’s born. Now I know the old pink/blue thing is a bit sexist, but don’t blame me, I didn’t make these vases, I just found them.

You’ll be pleased to know that this pink version is just as cheap, tacky and plastic as the blue one. If you’ve got a girl and a boy (and they don’t mind pink and blue), then these are just the gifts to tweak their interest in gardening.

On the other hand if you couldn’t bear to have them in your house do me a favour… keep a look out and let me know if you ever see a yellow one to complete the set.
