My wonderful granddaughter decoupaged a metal vase for me for Xmas. She included the women authors I like best; Virginia Woolf, Vita Sackville West, Louisa May Alcott etc. etc. Maybe you could do a similar thing. Or some time ago there were instructions on this site for coloring plain vases with food coloring and glue (I believe) I did that and they came out great!
