AIO: BF said my that this new vase I made is an
"eye sore" when visitors come over but I disagree
Throwaway account since my BF is super active on my main Reddit account.
I (28F) blow glass and turn it into art for a living. I create all types of fun art to use around the house and try to make my place fun, colorful and bright.
My BF (34M) of 2 years has always used the same traditional glass vase whenever he buys me flowers and I wanted to create something new that would not only bring the flowers to life but also pop when visitors are over.
I have been working on this vase now for weeks and yesterday I took the flowers he just bought me and placed them into the new vase to surprise him when he got home from work.
When he got home he made a weird face and said that it was a bit of an “eye sore” and he preferred the traditional vase instead.
I worked really hard on this and was hoping he’d appreciate it but I guess he isn’t the biggest fan…
AIO or is this really an eye sore?😔
