Painted Vases

Good afternoon!  Hope your enjoying your Wednesday afternoon!  I have so many of these vases laying around the house.  You know...the ones that come when you get flowers from your hubby?!


I've seen many ideas floating around blog land using these vases.  I wanted to try and paint the outside of the vases, which I've seen on Pinterest.  I figured that if they didn't work out, I haven't lost much.  I just sprayed the outside of the vases pink and then distressed around the corners.  I think they look much better this way than the latter....especially when they are holding zinnias.....one of my fave flowers!!


If you're reading....ThAnKs!!!

  9. Love the new look of your vases. I posted about a vase redo that I did about a week ago. Check it out if you have time, it was an easy transformation. I'm thinking about painting some vases similar to the ones you have. I picked up several at GW and they're just waiting to be all prettied up.
