DIY Red, White and Blue Vase Tutorial

This is super easy! It can be done with any color gems to fit your needs – We did Red, White and Blue for the 4th. But imagine the possibilities – the color combos you could come up with to create a unique, fun, easy and inexpensive piece for your living room, bathroom, table, bedroom or next party!

What you need-

a glass vase, bottle or container that you can put flowers or straws in- hey you could even do this for a pencil/pen holder!

gems – you can find these at your local craft store, some dollar stores even have them.

hot glue gun and glue sticks

How to-

I just went with the flow. Feel free to make a pattern – If you do this leave me a comment with the link to your post of it! I would love to see what you come up with.

    Oh Rowena that is just to sweet! It's so simple but I would have never thought of it. I already have the prefect vase for this. Just need to run to the craft store for those gems.

    Love this! I really like that you overlapped some of them. Gives it a neat texture along with all the colour and sparkle. Very nice~ Thanks so much for sharing at Etcetorize this week!
