PVC pipe + Gold spray paint = modern centerpiece

11 April 2014

If you're anything like me, you've got an open-air restaurant, garden parties and Sunday morning brunch in the brain thanks to the 70-degree afternoon, and that elusive thing called the sun's reemergence. To get to our home in the spirit of spring, I ended up with a simple do-it-yourself central idea, which cost less than $ 10 accessories! Here is what you need:

Handheld saw (see the box on the optional, but encouraged) the PVC pipes (I bought the 1-inch and 2-inch tube, each about 2 feet long) with gold spray paint

In this project, I ended up calling in the big guns — a.k.a., my husband — who was kind enough to cut the PVC pipes down to size, using a handheld saw. Connect saw to miter box (even a cheap plastic one like we have) really goes a long way in ensuring that the pieces stay nice and straight. What is the length of the PVC tube "vases" I just eyeballed them from long to short to give the final cluster of modern, asymmetrical look.

All six vessels of the pipe cut brushed off and took them on the outside may be an old scrap of cardboard. Next I gave each a thin and uniform layer of my favorite go-to Valspar gold spray metal color. After about 20 minutes we went back and gave them the last layer before the withdrawal of the indoors to dry over night.

The next morning I picked up the vases are now shiny musiikkikatalogien up to my studio, together with the equally eye-catching musiikkikatalogien fresh flowers on the marketplace. I chose a variety of colorful wildflowers, but nothing that really do — tulips, hyacinth, hydrangea. Select your favourite from the stem and place a few of each size DIY vases.

I see six in overtime this season when we are celebrating birthdays, graduations, anniversaries — no matter what! Oh and if you are wondering how to assume, to keep my blooms live more than an hour or two on the bottom-less craft, all it took was a carefully hidden (surprise!) tasting a glass tube on the bottom.
