In yesterday's post, I created a tablescape using some neon pink bottle vases. The process was very easy, so I thought I'd share it in a few quick photos.
I have begun a habit of saving nicely shaped bottles after the condiment or drink is consumed. In my world, you just never know when a craft idea will hit. One must always be prepared and be sure not watch hoarders to feel guilty about this need to be prepared.
First, take off the label by soaking it in water and then scrubbing it with your fingernail until the label is clean off.
Then, wrap a 10" paper doily around the top of the bottle and secure it tightly with a rubber band.
Stick a dowel into the grass and place the bottle upside down onto it and spray with spray paint. I do not recommend that you have your daughter hold the dowel as she is very unreliable and will drop the bottle in the grass. And clearly you have noticed that I did this one in gold, which I later decided to spray over again with the pink. The gold photos didn't look good at all.
Et voila! A super cheap, kind of pretty little vase!
I love DIYs because each piece reflects your personality and creativity. This vase is looking super cute; the pink color is just gorgeous and gives the vase such a pretty look! I’ve always enjoyed doing DIYs, but for the past three months, I’ve been completely occupied with writing and researching for my thesis. Now I’m in the final stage: getting it published. After almost falling into a scam, I’m now working with web of journals, and they’ve been guiding me through the publishing process. Once that’s all done, I’m definitely going to dive back into some of these beautiful DIYs you’ve shared. They're so inspiring and really make me miss crafting!
ReplyDeleteOnce, a nursing student was feeling overwhelmed with assignments and classes. It was all about books, notes, and tight deadlines. Then one day, for a class project, everyone was asked to turn recycled bottles into painted vases. At first, it felt like a waste of time, but as soon as the brush touched the bottle and the colors started to flow, the stress began to fade. With each stroke, things felt lighter. That moment made it clear that creative tasks are also important—especially when there's a constant need for assignment help for nursing students this small activity not only brought peace of mind but also taught the value of teamwork and balance.
