Quick Vase Makeover

Ever take all these amazing photos, only to realize that you don't have your memory card in your camera? That's me right now, minus the amazing photos portion, they are just regular photos.

Anyway, I will try and describe to you so you can follow along with my quick vase face lift.

Photo 1: A sad, 2ft tall wickery brown vase sitting in a corner all empty, but was purchased because it was marked down to $10 from $40.

Photo 2: Said vase now with some fake greenery and white looking things in it. It's getting there, but still a little said.

Photo 3: Enter a plastic bag, frog tape, and white spray paint.

Photo 4: Picture of top 1/3rd of vase covered with plastic bag and tape, and and bottom 2/3rds of vase exposed and spray painted white.

Photo 5: Said vase back in corner, newly painted, with greenery and white looking things back in it.

This is where I go to remove the memory card to upload and edit my photos, only to realize it's not there.

Photo 6: Reshoot of Photo 5 (see below)


I'm a little late on the "dipped" bandwagon - truth be told I'm always a bit late on every decor bandwagon. I just like to be reeealllyy sure I like something because I like it, not because it's popular. And if you wait longer, the popular stuff becomes unpopular and goes on sale, which means a 75% discount like on the vase above. Hoolllaaa.
