Notice the little bowls in each photo? Whether these are new purchases or flea market finds, they make adorable decorative pieces that function as a catch-all for keys, paper clips or jewelry.
I feel I need a bowl just like those in the pictures. I also feel the need to craft! And let's throw in some recycling, too.
I'm phasing out some of the blah nail polish I have, in favor of more safe and eco-friendly ones. I'll reuse these as paint for this glass bowl that's looking a little blah:
{Look for glass bowls at garage sales or thrift stores.}
When painting with polish, it's better to work outdoors or in a well-ventilated area because the scent can be quite overwhelming. Don't forget to cover your work surface with newspaper.
Work with a clean and dry glass bowl, and liberally pour in the polish.
Swirl the bowl to evenly distribute color. Use two or three coats {allow polish to dry in between coats}. You can combine two shades of similar colors or try contrasting colors, too.
I love the pearlized finish provided by the polish!
Allow this to dry and air out for a few days
{ideally outdoors}.
Once dry, use it for decoration.
And for storage as well.
TADA!
