Gorgeous Glass Vase Make-over
Ideas for a housewarming gift for a new neighbour got me onto this project. I recently bagged a charity shop bargain of a pair of plain glass vases that were screaming out for decoration!
I wanted to try some new acrylic paint pens and so I used this as an opportunity to see how I get on with them.
I carefully paint flowers and dots using the white paint pen.
I get the hang of the pens and it is great that you can wipe mistakes away easily before it dries.
I use colours to accent and bring life to the vases, but you can choose to keep it the way it is if you'd like.
I’m pleased with the pretty designs I got with acrylic paint pens and will develop and try out some more techniques . If you want the makers advise baking in oven to fix but i found the design seemed pretty fixed and robust without baking and fine for the purpose of vases.
Here they are fully finished, and looking beautiful. I hope you give this project a try yourself.
