$10
Easy
This adorable copper bud vase required only four materials that can be obtained from any craft store, and looks beautiful on any wall!
Supplies:


Craft plywood


Metal candle plate, 4″


Copper air chamber, 1/2″ x 8″


Wire


A strong adhesive (I used Liquid Nails)


Wood stain


Rubber bands


Paintbrush


Vinegar + salt


Optional: Minwax polycrylic
1. Polish the copper air chamber with salt and vinegar. Rinse and let dry.
2. Use scissors to cut a piece of craft plywood that is wide enough to just barely wrap around the air chamber. Pop it into a pot of water, and simmer for 5 minutes.


3. Carefully remove the plywood from the pot and wrap around the air chamber (if it resists, boil it longer!). Secure with rubber bands and let dry.
