Pretty Bud Vases #2

A couple of posts ago I shared some bud vases I made from various jars
& vintage bottles I had laying around collected. I made a set in a beautiful
turquoise blue and now I have a set in cameo pink to share.
Just a note: I used spray paint on the outside for these....
I feel it gives a much cleaner coating of paint and you don't
have to worry about scratching up the inside..


Because I thought pink vases weren't enough I thought why
not decorate them EVEN more. Because my motto is always
MORE IS BETTER & GO BIG OR GO HOME!!!!

Ok so on 2 of the jars I added some sweet pink lace around the neck of the bottles and
a few posies to finish them off. And the gaudiest most fashionable vase is
definitely the one I lined with HOLE-LESS buttons (vintage I might add)



Nice right? Best part is that you could really customize these for any style.
Retro Kitschy red, shabby white and even baby blue for a powder room or little boys room.
It's all about your selection of spray paint.

Jars are fun and I have a few more ideas floating around to share --- all spin offs
from other crafty ladies in the blog-o-sphere.

I sure hope you have a wonderful Labor Day Weekend.

Very simple and easy. I recently tried to spray paint a metal tray and wooden candle stick to make a dessert server. It didn't work. After I used a primer (let that dry overnight) and then use spray paint it started bubbling and completely messed up. Do you have any idea what I did wrong?

I am stopping by this evening from the Blog Hop Til You Drop. Nice to "meet" you. I hope you have a great holiday weekend!

Blessings,
