My Twine Vase's

Hey Everyone!!  Spring is on it's way and I've gotten back into the groove with some DIY projects.  The first one I've conquered are these lovely little vase's.  I love them because of the natural texture. They're great because they were super easy to make!





I started with two clear vases, some twine and my hot glue gun.  I cleaned the vases up good because they have been sitting up in my attic for quite some time.





I put a dab of glue on the bottom of the vase and then wound the twine tightly around.  Every so often I would stop to sort of pinch the twine together to avoid gaps also to add a dab of glue. 



Soon it looked like this.  What do you think?  You can stop how ever far up on the jar you want to give it your own look. 





 I set them on my dining room table for display.  I can't wait to have some spring blooms to add to them!

    oooh... I like this one! I have seen it on the garbage cans and the pottery... but I really like the look of the twine on the clear glass. Very pretty!
