DIY Halloween Vase
Get ready to get your spook on with a fabulous DIY Halloween vase! Inspired by the charm of a Pottery Barn classic, this project lets you create your very own Halloween-themed home decor on a budget. You'll be amazed at how a simple vase transforms into a haunting masterpiece, complete with a skeleton arm and a black scarecrow. So, let's dive into the world of DIY and start creating your very own Halloween vase.
What You Will Need
- Vase or container Check out Goodwill or Dollar Tree!
- Thin plastic white skeleton
- Americana gloss enamels for glass in white
- Hot glue and a glue gun
Instructions
- Begin by painting your vase or container. I used Americana gloss enamels for glass in white, but you can also use whatever color you would like.
- Allow the vase to dry well in between coats.
- Once the vase is dry, cut the hand off of the skeleton with a pair of scissors and use hot glue to put it on the front of the vase. Make sure you place it in a position where it looks like it's holding onto the container. You may need to bend or adjust the fingers so they look right!
- The final touch was adding this black scarecrow I found at Dollar Tree. I love how it finishes off the look and gives it a little more Halloween feel.
- Now, just put some flowers in your vase and admire your work!
Notes
- You may need to do two-three coats of paint because the material of the vase will be a bit porous and may suck up some of the paint.
- You can use the other parts of the skeleton for other crafts like this skeleton dish.
