Under $10
Painted Vases/Containers
The curse of being crafty is BUDGET. If you can walk into a dangerous place such as Hobby Lobby, Michael's or any store for that matter without a worry in the world as to how much that extremely full cart is about to cost you then, I'm jealous. Seriously. But dealing with a budget is a little more common these days! So since I'm a perfect candidate for being on a low budget and I'm terribly bored these days I thought I'd share some crafty How To's!
What you need:
Any glass container (I bought mine for under a dollar, IKEA)
Acrylic Paint (Also under a dollar each, Hobby Lobby)
Plastic Cup (something to drain the paint into afterwords)
Yes, it is that simple!
I did shades of purple, even though the one on the right looks blue, I promise, it's not!
Any color paint will look fabulous in a glass container and it is a fun easy way to add some homey feel to your room of choice!
-Pour the paint into the glass container.
-Rotate the container and spread that paint around!
I found it easier to tip the container so the paint goes everywhere inside!
I used almost the whole bottle but it really depends on the size of the container!
(Mine were about 7x3 in)

Once the inside is completely covered in paint,
tip that bad boy upside down (have the cup under it, no need to redecorate your counters!)
It takes some time but eventually all the excess paint will come out.
Tip back up to normal, and enjoy watching it dry for about 24-48 hours!

Then TA-DA!
Thanks for getting crafty with me!
Love them but don't have the time to make them? NO WORRIES! I also make them to sell if anyone is interested!
