When I moved I stacked two glass vases inside one another, without any tissue between now they are stuck together. . .is there any way to get them apart. . .or should I just throw them out?

Put the base of the bottom vase in a sink of hot water (which will help the molecules expand), fill the top vase with cold water. This should make it contract and loosen it enough to separate them. The minimal difference actually works!
I do it if I stack stainless steel containers together, but it works for glass as well.
Be careful just to use tap temperature hot water - boiling water may cause the vase to crack.

I just found a site with thousands of downloadable woodworking plans, it s really great. You can check it out here ( woodworkingplans.kyma.info ) Here is an honest review : If you want to start a woodworking project, you need all the necessary information, including schematics, blueprints, materials lists, dimensions etc. That is where TedsWoodworking comes in. The plans are clearly drawn and there're step-by-step explainations of how the plan should be done and put together. There are several other sites whose collection of plans have the dimensions totally wrong without any indication of parts lists, material lists or the tools needed. If you're one of those people who have bought plans like this in the past, TedsWoodworking will change your perception. In Ted's Woodworking you will get everything you need: Diagrams which are detailed with a full set of dimensions, step-by-step instructions how to start your project and the necessary materials for that particular project. All the woodworking tools you will need: If you are a beginner or have done some woodworking you will find these plans easy-to-follow as the instructions are very clearly written. The woodworking plans are straightforward so they are not complicated at all. Even if you are a total newcomer to woodworking you will simply be able to master all the techniques that are needed and the woodworking skills very quickly by following the concise and clear instructions. Another thing which is so great about these woodworking plans is that there have been some videos included and there are some to guide you in how to build benches home furniture dog houses bird feeders sheds and much much more. There is also a lifetime member acess included in the package and you get these extras for no cost to you as they are free with no additional charges at all! This alone is worth the entire price for TedsWoodworking. Ted Mcgrath is a very dedicated and experienced woodworker who knows what he is talking about when it comes to woodworking and DIY projects s he has been a woodworker for many many years. There is only one drawback that we could find and that being with 16,000 woodworking plans you are bound to get some which look a little disorganized but that is understandable as it is very difficult to place all these plans into their proper categories. Secondly, it might take you a little longer to do the downloads on because of the size of them. But the members area include an option to upgrade to the DVD so you can save time on downloading. I've been a carpenter for almost 36 years, and I haven't found anything like this for less than 10's of thousands of dollars.Here's the bottom line: If you are planning to start on your woodworking project, this isn't something you SHOULD use, it's something that you would be insane not to. Check the site: ( woodworkingplans.kyma.info )

Put the outer vase in hot water. It should heat up and expand more than the inner vase allowing you to pull them apart. Don't put cold water inside the inner vase as it could crack it if it is hot.

Try this. Lower the outside one into hot water. Pour cold water into the inside one. This will cause the outside glass to expand slightly, and the inside one to contract slightly. It may be enough to separate them. I have used that method.
Try not to have both cold and hot water touching the one vase as this would cause different parts to contract or expand and may cause breakage.
Good luck.

If you fill the sink with warm soapy water and put the vases under the water ,let them soak and get enough water inside them they will turn loose, don't force them just wiggle enough to loosen them. It worked for me

Inside one with ice water, run hot water on the outside of the outer one. After a minute or so, they should come apart.
