DIY Custom Color Vases


Love these DIY custom color vases.  This was a project that the mother of the bride did.  She collected vases from different thrift shops.  None really matched but they were all clear glass vases.  She bought paint in a color that matched the wedding colors.  Making sure that all of the vases were clean and dry inside, poured the paint into the vases, swirled it around and poured the excess back into her paint container.  Turned them upside down to let the paint drain and wiped the rim often the first our.  Wala!!
New eclectic vases for the reception.  I loved them.  She filled them with the striking orange asiatic lilies and she had wonderful centerpieces for her daughters wedding.
Here is a link for you with more complete instructions.  Happy vase hunting. http://www.marthastewart.com/268444/bottle-beauty
