Blue Tiles and a Yellow Vase

I bought these tiles a couple of weeks ago at an antique store for only$10 for eight. I looked a couple of years ago for tiles for our fireplace and could only find a couple and they were over $40 each. I'm not sure where these will go, but I love the detail. I picked up this bubbly yellow vase at a garage sale for $.50.

    Love these pretty blue tiles, in our area they would probably be about 20.00 each. You got a great deal and I love the yellow vase, it brings back such sweet memories of my Granny's house. She had several like it in blue and milk glass.

    Very pretty blue tiles! Perhaps you can combine them with white tiles and make something with them that way?
    The vase is cute!
