it's a brand new vase!

I found this ugly little thing at DI for $2.00 about a year ago. I knew sometime I would paint it, I just never found the time! But finally, I decided exactly what I wanted to do with it...

I love the finished product!

HOW TO:
I chose a cheap white spray paint from walmart. I spray painted the whole vase with the white and then taped a line where I wanted the gold to be. I sprayed on the metallic gold (from walmart) and for some reason, it crackled. Dont ask me how, it just did! Which makes me love it even more!

Now the one on the right I bought at DI last week for $4. Unfortunately I totally forgot to take a before picture :[ but let me ensure you.. IT WAS UGLY. It was multicolored swirls. But I loved the shape! On this vase I actually used a white paint+primer from hobby lobby, then taped and sprayed the gold. It didnt crackle. So I am GUESSING it may be from the primer. But I honestly dont know :] Then I spray painted some sticks and WALA! (i think that's how i would spell it)

BRAND NEW VASES!
