Transform Glass Jars into Flower Vases

Hey, hey! I hope you're having a good start to your week.

I don't think I'm alone in admitting that I keep a bunch of empty glass jars in my cupboard so I can turn them from blah to TADA! In the past, I've used these glass jars as floating lights, terrariums, beverage glasses and storage containers.

Today, I'm turning some glass jars into flower vases, very useful for the flowers you'll be receiving or giving away this Mother's Day. 

I'm going to show you three ways to turn these glass jars from blah to TADA!

The first is a simple speckled jar. I used a small paint brush, dipped it into acrylic paint and randomly dotted the jar in different colors. Let it dry and fill it with flowers...TADA!

The second option involves a base coat of white paint.

Once dry, draw some shapes with a pencil.

Then fill in the shapes with paint. I'm happy with this color block look...TADA!

The third option also requires a base coat of white paint.

Once dry, I added two coats of matte orange paint. 

Then I painted on some leaves and flowers...TADA!

Why buy vases when you can make your own using glass jars and paint? 

Just a few easy ways to turn glass jars from blah to TADA!
