Easy Hand Painted Vase!

You’ll need:
-A glass container (I used an old Starbucks Frappuccino container)
-Black permanent marker
-Craft paint
-Clear coat (I recommend Mod Podge)


First: Draw with permanent marker on your glass container. I chose to do hearts for Valentine’s Day, but you can do anything you want!


Next: Paint inside the lines of what you drew - leaving the black outline visible (if you mess up, don’t worry. Just let the paint dry and trace back over it.) Depending on how you want your paint to look, you may need to do a couple coats. (I did two coats on mine.)

Last: When your paint is dry, add your clear coat only to the areas that have paint on them. You can do the whole bottle, but I didn’t want to.

You’re all done! :) Now how easy was that?

This is perfect to put flowers in for Valentine’s Day! (if you’d like to make your own flowers, check out this tutorial: http://emzielife.tumblr.com/post/17240251925/how-to-inexpensive-valentines-day-gift)
