Meet Southern Florida's upcycled bong queen. Inspired by the lack of femininity in your standard smoke shop (let's be real, 90% of pipes are Rick and Morty themed), Karin Flory of Flora Flora Waterpipes decided to transform vintage vases into bongs. There's no greater moment than when a one-of-a-kind bong finds its dream stoner owner, says Karin. And we believe it. Earth Day and 4/20 are right around the corner, let's celebrate.***SOURCES MENTIONEDFlory Flora Waterpipes Good News: BRICKS! made of textile waste!MARIJUANA LEGALITY BY STATE - Updated April 2, 2024OUR SOCIALSInstagramPinterestTikTokYoutubeSupport to keep the party... circular!Fun 4/20 Quizzes - Who is Your Celebrity Stoner Persona?
