How to Decorate a Tulip Vase

Steps

• 1

  Paint a delicate design onto the face, bottom or top of the vase, keeping in mind that a minimalistic touch will best complement the shiny objects you will affix later. Consider green grass for the bottom, blue clouds for the top, or brightly colored wisps of curly-ques across the middle of the vase.

• 2

  Apply glue along the top of the vase near the rim no thicker than the circumference of the rhinestones.

• 3

  Affix rhinestones on top of the glue to bedazzle the spout from which the tulips will emerge.

• 4

  Select one rhinestone to stand out from the rest, and glue it on the face of the vase to enhance the design you painted.

• 5

  Cut the ribbon to the same length as the bottom circumference of the vase.

• 6

  Glue the ribbon along the bottom to give the illusion of grass.

• 7

  Allow paint and glue to dry overnight.

• 8

  Pour no more than two inches of marbles into the bottom of the vase.

• 9

  Place tulips inside the vase carefully one by one. Add enough water to submerge the marbles to keep your tulips fresh and healthy.
