Add colour to any room!




So I've seen this idea in a few places and it is so great! Basically you take any glass, jar, bottle, vase etc., grab some tole paints ($1 @Dollarama to $1.75 at Wal-Mart or art stores). With this project you're painting the inside of the jar which gives it a really different yet polished look. Just pour some paint inside your item and then slowly move it around, covering the entire inside. Just add a little bit of paint at a time and watch where you're tipping (almost dumped a lot of paint all over myself, not cool).

I got this set of three jars at Wal-Mart for $1.60 (crazy cheap) down in the vase etc. section right by crafts. You can also easily do this to items you find at the Thrift Store or have laying around (i.e. a Mason jar?). These three jars only took a few minutes to make & I did it just while watching tv- so easy!

It's a really, really, ridiculously simple craft project and a great way to add a punch of accent colours to any room :)
