Take floral arranging to another level with Niels van Eijk and Miriam van der Lubbe's Bloom My Buddy — the person-shaped vases are totally weird and totally fun at the same time — allowing for endless original creations when you add your own flowers, leaves and stems!
Originally commissioned by the Flower Council of Holland, the larger design (shown in the last two thumbnails) has been downsized for a home version. The smaller one measures 45 cm ( or 17.75"H) , is made of rotation moulded polyethylene and has 98 holes. The larger version measures 120 cm, is made of hand laminated polyester and has 298 holes.
The smaller size Bloom My Buddy is available from Generate for $200.

Ch ch ch Chia!
Mr. Potatoe Head meets Mr. Natural
If you have to ask . . .
I think these are super fun-looking but not for $200!
Correction, sorry. Mr. Potato Head meets My Buddy!
I love it, and would buy one right now if the price wasn't $200. I could see this getting taken up by Target.
Practical question: With so many holes, isn't it impossible to put water in there? Are you supposed to use florist foam blocks or something? Or fake flowers?
That big one is the stuff nightmares are made of.
Mr. Potato Head Chia Pet = NOOOOO!
it'd be cute if it was cheaper, 200$? no way
Another version of the Chita Pet.....Uh Uh!
wow. no.
I like the idea, it would look great in a kids room, but not at that price point.
i think they're hilarious! definitely agree that target needs to get cracking on this
uh...Creepy Von McCreeperson?
I couldn't have this in my house or anywhere near me.
no contest with the homer simpson chia head
I hated it until I saw the hula girl. Now I want one. But for $20.
I RARELY have fresh flowers in my life, and I certainly wouldn't waste them this way.
If I bought the vase I couldn't afford flowers!
I think I will spray paint a doll white and get out my drill!
