Brass planter to unique one of a kind Shining Beauty for $15
Brass planter with some staining found at Goodwill find for $6.97. Brass and gold tone items are not my favorite but the size of this planter made me buy it.
Use a little ModPodge, seed beads (2 packs for $3.99) and floral decorating ($3.99)
pencil in a nice wave design apply ModPodge and scatter seed beads until fully covered. I used the decoration rocks for a border trim. Once finished I applied the ModPodge over the entire beaded area to avoid losing beads.
this is a close up of the beading application after the ModPodge was applied over the entire beaded area. It iook 3 days to complete because of the stages of appling the ModPodge and beading and letting the areas dry completly.
This is the finished product! The shading on the planter is from the flash of the camera. I may use it as a bathroom trash can or home decoration. I do not know now but this was easy and fun.
