Tired of your old glass vases? Try this quick update using handmade paper from Natural Home. This project is quick and easy, and NH claims you can do the whole thing in less than a minute! Try the same technique with glass votive holders. I saw some nice straight-sided cylindrical vases at the dollar store last week that would be great for this project. I also found a pack of 3 sheets of mulberry paper in the gift wrap aisle. [click here for full instructions]

Project Estimate:

  • Glass vase, on hand or $1
  • Handmade paper, $1
  • Glue or Mod Podge

Total: $1 and up

    I love paper crafts!
