Bubble Balls at CB2

7-14-glassballs2.jpgOne of our favorite things from the CB2 preview we attended last week wasn't a piece of furniture but these seemingly simple glass balls.

Reminiscent of vintage fishing floats, they were displayed in bowls as modern centerpieces, a look that certainly works. But with those holes in their tops, we're dying to see them strung and hung from a ceiling with fishing wire, creating an ethereal bubble-like effect

$1.95-$3.95 each at CB2.

Looks absolutely useless to me. What are the bubbles sitting on top of Chex Mix?

oops, link is fixed. They were actually sitting on top of wood chips, although in my picture they do look rather like chex mix . . .

Cute, but I'm trying to get rid of this sort of clutter...

I'd like to serve wood and glass to some of my guests, with the mood I'm in today. Thanks for the helpful hint!

;-)


(Those bowls are fabulous. )
