The bell jar

The Great Gatsby should really be retitled Drink Responsibly. From comedian Dan Wilbur's Better Book Titles.

Bell Jars are the perfect home decor item. They seem to create inspiration and a feeling of significance to whatever is underneath it. Small items suddenly seem large. A collection becomes defined. Magic seems to happen whenever they are around. Perhaps it is the light that shines and sparkles from the reflective surface. Whatever it is, if you don't have any bell jars in your collection, maybe it's time to pick some up. Here are some ideas that I've found that may inspire you.
