I might be late to this trend, but boy, am I ever glad I hopped on it now! I’ve seen so many tutorials on how to create marble dipped vases with nail polish using everything from mugs to various home decor using this marble dipped technique, and I was itching to try it myself.
Aside from how stunning the vases look, it was so much fun to create. I felt like a kid again in my arts and crafts class. The effect is truly one of a kind and each piece is so uniquely beautiful that I can’t wait to do this project again on some other items in my home.
Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
Can you do this with material?
I couldn't wait to do this project. I went to Goodwill picked up a couple of cheap glass vases. I already had nail polish.
It turned out terrible and I threw away the vase.
I used a big water pitcher in which the whole vase fit with the water coming up the sides. I thought perfect.
When I put the vase in, bottom first, ALL the polish stuck immediately to the bottom of the vase leaving none for the sides. It was a mess.
Maybe I should have known this was going to happen.
I guess if I try again, use a bowl bigger than the vase and roll the vase in it. Don't use to much polish at once, it wants to stick immediately to glass. And add polish as you turn it..
And do wear disposable gloves. You don't want polish all over your hands.
Any more hints on this??
Thanks

Does it make any difference if I use cold or hot or warm water?
