Whenever my fiance and I go on a date or celebrate a special occasion with a bottle of wine, we write the date and location on the cork and save them. Right now our corks are just sitting in a boring glass bowl. I would love to store them in this so we would be able to see them from all angles!

Hope I win so I can bring my idea to life!

Monica S

Patty Loyde
2012-02-21

Its always hurricane season at Willow House! I love the Hawthorne Hurricane because it can work in both a traditional or contemporary setting. For Mardi Gras I would surround a candle with purple, green and gold beads and add a feather mask around the outside. For spring, I would turn it upside down and use it as a cloche to cover a birds nest or other springy vignette, tying a bow around what is normally the base, maybe even adding a candle on the flat top.

Rose A
2012-02-21

Becky Bright
2012-02-21

Instead of a registry at my daughter's wedding, guests are signing in on blank cards. I'd use this for the vessel to hold the cards. I'd decorate around the base with peach and royal blue tulle to match her wedding colors.

Heather Lackey

My other hurricane (the Hemingway) is lonely and needs a friend. I'd love to have the Hawthorne to A) cheer up Hemingway and B) so I can conduct hurricane-decorating contests at my home decor parties!

Suzanne Jackson
2012-02-21

I love, love, love Hurricanes. The first job this baby would have would be to serve up our Easter fruit salad, but then Mrs. Hawthorne could retire to the master bath to enhance the spa setting... a few smooth stones in the bottom (with or without sand)and a lovely scented candle dropped in, and she's setting the relaxing mood for us all.

Monique Davis
2012-02-21

Our beautiful Hawthorne Hurricane... love the sleek and sophisticated look! For a simple look simply line the hurricane with a beautiful piece of coordinating paper for your room. Makes it so easy to change your look without a lot of cost. Willow House Simply Good Design

Mary Scannell
2012-02-21

Love it!! I would use it as a center piece for my Easter Brunch and fill with pink and green jelly beans and place a smaller glass jat in the middle of the jelly beans and place Pink Gerber Daisies in the center. Will look awesome!!

Dixie
2012-02-21

I've enjoyed all of my products from Willowhouse but haven't had the opportunity to purchase the hurricane yet. I can just see it filled with colorful beans or some spring flowers.

Faith G
2012-02-21

Love the clean and classic lines of this hurricane. Spring flowers would be gorgeous in it. Or if it's a rough day, a TALL sangria could fill it up!

Felicia

Kathy Procario
2012-02-21

This piece is a MUST have but I don't have it!!! It would be great dressed up for every season -- conversation hearts and candle, red hots and flowers, green M&M's and carnations, PEEPS and tulips. Or use on a brunch bar with granola or cereal. Use on an entry table on our Eclipse Riser with Pussy Willows. The ideas are endless!

Therese Stepowany
2012-02-21

This beautiful hurricane would be just in time for my baby shower. I would fill it with small baby things that could be used for a new baby. Then I'd have an "instant centerpiece" for the dining table!

Omgoodness, I love, love, love this hurricane!!! I was just watching HGTV and they were giving tips on filling a space w/o it looking like a big mess. They said that u should go w/less is more and one of the suggestions was to use a hurricane base for volume but not looking overly crowded or overdone. I have the perfect place for this so, let's get this drawing rolling!!! Can't wait!!! :-)

This is one of the most versatile pieces in our collection. I would keep this on the sideboard in the hallway so it would be one of the first things you see when entering the front door. This could be decorated for every season and look stunning!

Jan Kuehn

I love the clean lines of Hawthorne. Beautiful used as a decor item with flowers or since it is food safe...and it is Fat Tuesday just fill it with lots of chocolate. This piece could also be used as a small punch bowl. I would love to have this piece.

Although I could use a cold hurricane about that tall right now, it's more likely that I would fill the vase with the marbles that have fallen out of my head this afternoon. LOL... thanks for the chance to win.

Allison Marcum
2012-02-21

Just gorgeous! I would love to pair this with another Willow House hurricane I have and put fresh flowers in each in the spring time

Krysta Denner
2012-02-21

There are many things I would use this for. St. Patty's Day-Gold Coins & sharmocks, Easter - colorful eggs, Spring - tulips, and the list goes on...

Debbie Wood

I would flip this over and cover a small silk potted plant, then place a candle on top.

Stacy Prince

Barb Shoemaker

Joan Bisogno

The Hawthorne Hurricane is a great display container for delicious red apples. Even if you don't like apples now you will when you see them in this hurricane.

Debbie W.
2012-02-21

Love this as a vase. Would also decorate for the seasons with candles and holiday fillers.

Lauren Phillippi
2012-02-21

I love this piece! I'd use it to create a "fire and ice" centerpiece - bunched up plastic wrap in water to create an ice effect, and a floating candle on top!

Barb Whitaker

Using this hurricane in entry with fresh, forced quice blooms popping out daily, anchored with river rocks...two would be very impressive!

For more than just drinking out of. There are lots of ways to decorate this. Fill it with confetti for each holiday and add a bow to the bottom. Love this piece!

Suzanne Bagley

This is one of my favorite products and if I won I would give it to my next hostess because it has so many uses. I love it for layered veggies. Use a long fork and your guests will dive right in for that crisp healty goodness. Of course the dip you will serve with it will take some of the "healthy" away.... It's wonderful with dried beans or peas and filled with a large candle; and of course it makes a fabulous vase. It holds a dessert of layered puddings and goodies or even a banana split, family style can be served in this great hurricane, and it always looks so pretty!

Molly P
2012-02-21

I love hurricanes! It's like the "little black dress" that every girl must have. I would use this at my parties to demo how versatile this beautiful product is..

Karen Tegeler

The ideas are truly endless for this awesome hurricane. I'll take a different route and serve up a salad in a fresh new way. Fill it with layers of spring mix lettuces, strawberries, kiwi, mandarin oranges, a bit of red onion slivers for "bite", feta cheese crumbles and toasted slivered almonds. Sprinkle it with raspberry vinaigrette dressing, serve it up with tongs and you've got a salad that doubles as a centerpiece!

Linda Gordon

Dawn Jones-Ca

My Hawthorne Hurricane would never be put in a corner! I would keep it out ALL YEAR! From jelly beans around a glass with flowers inside to Hurricanes on Fat Tuesday. From river rocks, moss and shells from my vacations to Christmas balls. Every holiday and occasion BIG and SMALL would be celebrated in and with my Hawthorne Hurricane.

Mia Tremblay
2012-02-21

I love it with the Tulips, but it can hold things as well, pencils, brushes, hair bands, how about candles...with coffee beans, or m&m's three different colors....I like using all of our glass hurricanes on my mantel with christmas balls, eggs, candy...so many choices.

Lynn

I love this hurricane, it blends into any decor and lends itself to any occasion. From flowers to a sand sculpture, the possibilities are endless. I have one on each side of my fireplace, and decorate for the season.Right now they are adorned with nothing more than a 4' pillar in each.

Tracy Walls

Alice F Jacksonville, FL
2012-02-21

This hurricane is awesome....and I don't have it! This is such a versatile "must have" piece. I would use this beautiful item as a revolving center piece. In the spring I would fill with hand dyed colorful Easter eggs, change to bright tulips in the spring. Arrange lovely sunflowers for the summer and replace with seashells in the fall to remind me of the beach and the promise of sunny days to come. Perhaps the best of all would be the Christmas center piece! The beautiful hurricane would turn into a lovely holder of silver tinsel and bright covered ornaments, with a few fresh sprigs of fresh holly leaves! For New Years, I would opt for something more sexy and romantic and fill this lovely must have with strings of pearls. A Hawthorne Hurricane with endless possibilities.

Lizzy Sarah Dahlstrom
2012-02-21

Hurricanes serve so many purposes - but regardless of use, they are always the main attraction! I can't wait to make this the centerpiece at my next dinner party - perhaps filled with a tasty treat known as "sin in a bowl" or "death by chocolate"!

Michelle Wall
2012-02-21

I put this light blue seashell collection mixed with white potpourri in mine - perfect since I live near the beach!

Jodi WIlson
2012-02-21

Beautiful piece! I am thinking it will look good as a centerpiece on my table. I'll be thinking of ways to decorate it while we wait for the winner to be announced.

Huricanes in all sizes are perfect to use for ice cream socials. Fill with rounded scoops of ice cream to the top, put in freezer, and when the company comes, serve each ball in small bowl with toppings. Already made up, no mess, and they look beautiful with different colors and flavors.

Cindy P.
2012-02-21

This would look fabulous with easter grass and easter eggs.

Jeline Upshaw

CMCNancyB
2012-02-22

Well, if my Willow House friend didn't share already, there are loads of ideas in my head for this piece, but I think hers is one of the best - get a simple "etching" kit and put the wedding couples initials on it. Now for my continuation of the idea... Put beautiful flowers in it for the wedding and then whatever their heart desires after the wedding. Candles, more flowers, decorative balls or ornaments for any occasion - eggs for Easter, chocolate hearts for Valentines (with roses in the center of the chocolate of course using those individual stem/water containers), evergreen/holly/Christmas plants, fruit for a brunch, my goodness this piece has endless ideas. And I love to read all of yours... Thank U!

Tammy B
