No. And at least he had managed to make something, however fragile it turned out to be. "You can vanish that and try again. We've got plenty of thimbles."
Blushing furiously, the Ravenclaw started to stammer
"I-I-I... I dont-- I mean it wasnt very--" strong? durable?
"-- good. I mean the quality.... it broke easily." Yeah so much for getting it right the first time. Hurriedly he vanished the broken pieces then meekly reached out for a new thimble.
He sat there staring at the small metal piece, trying to visualize something far more durable than the first one he conjured up. Finally he mustered up the courage to try again, pointing his wand and twisting his wrist thrice in the upward, clockwise movement
"Floreneo." The thimble swirled in its spot, growing in size until if finally settled to look

Uhm ok.
Vickers reached out and hesitating for a second, took hold of the vase. It was made of hard plastic. Certainly this wouldnt break now... thing is he'd be hard pressed to think of flowers that wouldnt need water either.
