Christmas DIY Vase. From SA Live Segment

DIY December 13, 2016

1111

Just last week, I was invited to SA Live and wanted to share with you one of the DIY’s that we created. I’ve made these fun Christmas vases before but it’s been a while, and I wanted to share them again. They make great centerpieces, candy jars and much more. Don’t forget to keep your eye out for the upcoming post featuring the other crafts I made on SA Live. You can see the video below. How much money we spend on items like vases every year is ridiculous. This is what has prompted me to really try and become more of a DIY enthusiast. I know a lot of you will be saying this vase project can hardly be considered a proper DIY project but it’s always important to remember starting small is nothing to be ashamed of. I’m a relative newcomer to the DIY world but I must say I’m enjoying every minute of it! In fact, I’m hoping to be able to take on a more challenging DIY project very soon. Any DIY enthusiast reading this will know the holy grail of our hobby is creating something of your own using a welder. Having sussed out a Dekopro welder online, I am fairly confident I would be able to give making my own bbq pit a good go. I will definitely be keeping you posted on my progress and I’ll try to fit in some blog posts about the dos and don’ts of welding at some point in the near future.

A fun fact: You can make these for under $15. Don’t forget that you can get creative and do not have to follow these instructions completely but you can make your own.

Materials you will need: I’ve included Amazon links to make it easy to purchase. However, you can head to your local Walmart or Hobby Lobby and find everything you need.

  • Painters Tape
  • Modge Podge
  • Glitter
  • Paintbrush

The first thing you will want to do is take your vase and painters tape and create your master piece.

For this project, I didn’t just put the Modge Podge on the vase and sprinkle glitter. I mixed the glitter and the Modge Podge. The cool thing about going about it this way is that when the glue dries it will keep all the glitter from falling off. No glitter mess! Keeping The Husband happy.

Last, thing you will want to do. Peel off the tape. You will want to do this right after you’re done painting. You want the glue to still be wet. If you wait too long it will start to peel off the glitter and mess up your straight line.

You are now finished and have a beautiful Christmas decoration. I hope you enjoyed and don’t forget to come back for the other two DIY projects from the segment.

Living Life one day at a time

But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”

Joshua 24:15 Joshua 24:15

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

Colossians 3:23-24 Colossians 3:23-24

My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

Psalm 73:26 Psalm 73:26
