Embellished Vases

We found these ceramic vases on clearance at Michaels and grabbed them, then walked down the aisle with all the little embellishments in the scrapbooking section when inspiration struck! We transformed a couple of plain, swamp-colored vases into pretty patterned ones!

What You Need:

• Ceramic Vases
• Embellishments (we used little paper flowers and crystal stickers)
• Spray Primer
• Spray Paint (we used blue and white)
• Mod Podge or Glue

How To Make It:

• Adhere the embellishments to sides of ceramic vases. We used Mod Podge to glue little flowers all over one vase, and just stuck the patterned crystal stickers on the other.

• Once vases are covered, spray with primer.
• Once primer completely dry, spray paint vases in color of choice and let dry.
