DIY Thrift Store Gold Striped Vase

This was a fun and easy project that I knocked out in ten minutes.  I have an entire shelf in my cupboard that’s full of flower vases–some from arrangements that have been delivered, some from thrift stores.  I loved the square shape of this vase, but wanted to jazz it up a bit.

I used ScotchBlue Painter’s Tape to create lines:

And then I gave the vase a coat of Rustoleum Gold Metallic Spray Paint.  When I peeled the tape off, the gold stripes were perfect!

I love fresh flowers, and the vase adds the perfect touch to my living room.  It’s almost done, by the way, so you’ll be seeing the full reveal in the next week or so.

Until then, you can read about my DIY built ins {here}, the gold garden stool I painted {here}, and the black velvet chair {here}.

I think this would be a cute hostess gift, too, don’t you?  I am ALWAYS looking for good hostess gift ideas!
