Spraypainted Glass Vases

Whew- this week seems to be flying by!

I guess that's what happens when you have a million things you need to do.

Preparing for heading to the beach is at the top of my list of things to do...

as well as groceries, keeping little man occupied and cleaning the house!

In other big news- the Tiffany Desk sold.

I'm actually kind of sad about that but it couldn't have gone to a more pefect person so I'm excited about that :)

Anywho...

A while back, I decided I just had to try my hand at spraypainting some glass.

I'd seen so many different bloggers doing it and thought it was just beautiful so I headed out to my favorite Goodwill and bought these guys:

It was some kind of blue tag sale so I could buy one and get one free so I got them all for under five bucks.

Score.

I loved the knobby one :)

I played around with them a little and ended up liking this arrangement- the big clear vase sits perfectly on top of the candlestick so I decided they were meant to be!!

I'm on a yellow and grey kick lately (wait til you see the almost finished craft room!)

so these colors jumped out to me immediately!

I was a bad DIY-er and didn't prime first but...it was totally FINE.

Promise.

No big ugly disasters here.

Just go slow and steady and do several light coats and you can go prime-less like me.

(or if you didn't just run completely out like me, you can go ahead and use it!)

The grey went on perfectly- I was a little more worried about using Krylon without primer because it tends to drip more for me.

But it went on beautifully.

And here are the little lovelies in their new, pretty colors:

I really am just head over heels for this little vase.

It's so dang cute.

This white one was surprisingly easy to cover-

I was a little worried since it had the weird hyroglyphics thing going on

but the spraypaint must have really loved me that day.

It's amazing to me how easy it is to make things 'go' together with a little spraypaint.

And the details were just hidden in the green glass- now it just pops right out :)

I orginally planned to put these lovelies in the new craft room but they ended up in a new home

after I decided to tackle another furniture redo.

This is the only peek I'm giving ya until later this week...

Excited?

I can't wait to show you- it was a way fun piece to do!

Well, I'm off to finish my beach lists!

Have a fantastic Tuesday :)
