We've had this ice bucket for over 20 years, never took it out of the box. It's moved to multiple homes with us, and when we moved last year, I vowed to finally use it for something. Ended up spending $85 at Michael's (our daughter gave me some suggestions, and my wife told me what colors to get).

Only if I have a lighter (or flamethower)

I thought about adding some mini lights

With great dismay. Other than foam and moss, it was mostly the @#$%& fake flowers.

I just have to remember to pretend to water them - I wouldn't want them to die.

Have we taught you nothing? Walmart and Hobby Lobby also have fake flowers. Michaels has coupons. It really shouldn't have cost more than $25. Please take a moderator with you the next time you shop.

Neither my wife nor I are very good with delayed gratification, and I wanted to do this on Sunday. That eliminated Hobby Lobby. And I had just showered and didn't want to have to take a post -Walmart shower lol
