Add colour at home with recycled flower vase

Dear Viewers,
  
      I have made a colourful vase with cute flowers out of waste materials. You can also recycle stuff at home into decorative piece. I have mentioned below the do-it-yourself (DIY) tutorial for craft lovers. 



Items required for the Vase:

1. Any kind of Glass bottle. (Mine is a ketchup bottle)
2. Wool with few contrasting colours. You can use blue, green, yellow, orange, red...)
3. Any Craft glue, (I have used fevicol craft adhesive)
4. Tissue paper to clean ad dry the bottle.
5. Scissor

The flowers are made from crepe paper. Feel free to contact for the flower making tutorial.

Steps :
1. Clean and dry the bottle and make it ready for the transformation.
2. Start applying glue from the base to 1/4 of the bottle.
3. Roll the woollen ball around the bottle and cut at 1/4 length.
4. Next keep applying glue to the ext section and add another contrasting colour wool one after another till the top.
5. Keep it in a moisture free area and let the vase dry completely.

Simple yet beautiful!

Tips: Apply adhesive in sections so that it doesn't dry up or mess your hands and the bottle.

Most important criteria for any craft work is to have patience and enthusiasm.

For those of you who will try this DIY, I would love to hear your feedback.
