You know that feeling when you walk into a room and it just feels... empty? I’ve been staring at my bare walls, longing for something cozy and inviting. What if I could create my own decorative wall vases? Just imagine how delightful it would be to fill them with fresh flowers from the market or even some dried blooms—like little bursts of joy hanging on my walls! I still remember the day my friend gifted me a handmade vase; it was like a spark. Suddenly, I felt this urge to express myself and transform my space. Why not bring that joy into my own home? Anyone else out there feeling the same way?

Cover your work surface with a plastic sheet or old newspaper to protect it from paint and glue.
Step 3: Clean the Vases

Use paint or sealer to decorate the vases. You can use brushes or spray bottles for application. Let them dry completely.

Once the paint is dry, use hot glue or E6000 craft glue to attach decorative accents like feathers, shells, or beads to the vases.
Step 6: Attach Twine or Rope
Wrap twine or rope around the neck of the vase and secure it with hot glue for an added decorative touch.
Step 7: Cut and Add Fabric
If using burlap or fabric, cut it to size and attach it to the vase using hot glue for a rustic look.
Step 8: Mark for Wall Hanging
Use a ruler to measure and mark where you want to place the hanging mechanism on the vase.
Step 9: Insert Hanging Mechanism
You can attach a hook or loop with hot glue or craft glue at the marked spots for hanging your vases on the wall.
