Short answer: a custom vase is a personal gift that still gets used every week. Pick a colour that matches their home, a size that suits the flowers they buy, and order by 15 December for delivery before Christmas in Malta and most of the EU. Prices start at €25.
Why a custom vase makes a good gift
- Nobody else has it. You choose every detail, so the vase exists because you designed it.
- It gets used. Fresh flowers, dried stems or a single branch: a vase earns its place on the shelf.
- It holds water. Each vase is printed in PETG as one continuous wall with a solid base.
- It travels well. PETG is lighter and tougher than ceramic.
Five steps to a vase they'll love
- Match the colour to their home. White, café latte and the pastels suit light, calm rooms. Navy blue, purple and espresso brown suit darker interiors. Cappuccino brown and glitter black go anywhere.
- Size it to how they use flowers. A small bud vase (€25) for someone who brings home a single stem; a medium vase (€40) for a supermarket bunch; a large one (€55) for branches and big bouquets.
- Choose a shape with a story. An amphora nods to the Mediterranean; an hourglass feels elegant; a column suits a modern flat.
- Add texture. Ribs and a twist catch the light. Keep it smooth for someone who likes things simple.
- Save the design code. Write it inside your card. They can open it in the designer and see how their vase was made.
Gift ideas to start from
- For a new home: the twisted amphora in cappuccino brown.
- For a desk or bedside: a faceted bud vase in navy blue.
- For a minimalist: a pleated espresso-brown column.
- For Valentine's Day: a purple hourglass.
