From North of the Boulevard~
Adding some color to clear glass vases found at a thrift shop adds just the right spring time feel. My inspiration for this came from this pinterest find which looked simple and it absolutely is.
I’ve had these vases for a while and they were stored away, just waiting for something like this to give them new life.
Materials Needed~
Clear Vases
Acrylic Paint in Various Pastel Colors
Absorbing Towel
Pour paint into the vase and twirl it around until it fully coats all parts of the vase. I used acrylic paint because it spreads so easily and I don’t plan on using water in these vases.
Turn the vase upside down and allow any excess paint to drip out. I placed them upside down on a towel for a couple of minutes and then returned them upright and allowed them to dry.
I added some silk flower stems to finish off the look. That’s it! How easy is that? Springtime décor~cute, easy and quick!
Each of these vases cost .25 at a local thrift store. Acrylic paint is super cheap, too. The silk blooms were ones I already had, but they can be found at a dollar store, keeping the total cost at only a few dollars.
