Knock Off Pottery Barn Vases
I love making my own version of something but with items from around my house, the best part if when it is from upcycled parts - like glass jars!
First step is to clean and wash your jars of all labels. I like to soak them in water to get the main part of the label off then use a label remover like Undo to get the rest off. I then etched one of the jars in Etchall dip n etch liquid to "frost" it, just for a little something extra.
I then cut strips of Styletechcraft vinyl into different widths and added stripes to the jars from thick to thin bottom to top. I like to use a tall jar versus a short wide jar for this vase because it allows you get mroe strips on the vase. A good number of strips to use is at least 3 - but you can go up to 10 if you wish, just make the strips thinner.
See how easy these jars are to make in this video.
The first jar I did in a teal Polished metal vinyl, and the second one I did in a yellow polished metal vinyl. Really it works for any color you want to make your jar! What color of vase will you make?
