Crafts Even You Can Do!
Do you wish you had fun new decor, but you don’t want to break the bank getting it? I know the feeling and that is why I’m about to show you one way you can turn a boring vase into a fun conversation piece.
Start by purchasing a cheap vase. You can get one at your local Dollar store.
Purchase some bailing twine and a hot glue gun (don’t forget to buy the glue). The glue gun will come in handy for future crafts, and they really don’t cost that much.
Start by wrapping the twine around the vase, gluing it down as you go. (Run the glue across the twine or the vase and press the twine down on the vase on top of the glue.
Make sure the twine is tight as you go. You don’t want any of the twine to pop out or be uneven.
Continue until you get to the top of the vase. Cut the twine from the string and you are done. You can add something fun to the vase like we did!
What do you think? This was one of the simplest crafts I have ever done!
Now this one is my favorite. It’s a vase received as a gift (you know, the ones delivered to the door when you have a baby or something special like that?) What do you typically do with those vases? I was always unsure (not that I receive them all the time or anything, but I have a couple just setting in a cupboard). I pulled one out, found a star I had sitting in a drawer (you can find these in the craft store) and did the same thing I did with the first vase, only I glued the star to the outside of the twine/vase.
I love the finished product!

Do you like to do crafts? We would love to hear about your favorite crafts.

These do look like fun crafts and would be a great way to pass the time on the upcoming winter days indoors
I guess you could do this with any container and it would work!
This is so cool! I think this is a perfect gift idea for my mom. She is super into the Farm House trend right now, and this would fit in perfectly! Thank you for sharing!

Interesting crafts, good rainy day activity.
I love jute crafts, thanks for sharing with us.
The Dollar Store is the best place to buy cheap craft supplies. Thanks for the craft.
I really like this as you could use it to dress up lots of items.
This is a great craft for anytime of the year. I might see if my niece has any interest in making a vase/holder next time she’s here.
I love this idea. This would be fun to do.
This craft does seem like a lot of fun! I feel a sense of accomplishment when I create something myself!
I do enjoy crafts but I did more of that when I was younger and had more time. One day I will have time and enjoy crafts like this again.
This does look fun and something that I would so enjoy. I think this is so clever thanks for sharing this one.
Vase Crafts does seem like such fun and creativity. I like crafts that are easy and not a lot of work also.
