Before you start creating a vase, you should consider and analyze each style of the interior, and understand how to emphasize the originality of this style with the help of a vase made with your own hands.

Choosing a vase for the style of the interior

Minimalist style. Choose laconic and modest forms, the color shades of which are not saturated and restrained; The decoration of the vase should be neat.

Classicism style. Symmetrical patterns and designs are fine here. Preference is given to light shades, and drawings of traditional colors that take place in the design of the entire interior.

Hi-tech style. The most modern materials when creating a vase. It can be glass, metal, wood or steel. Forms and finishes are also variable, they can have a whimsical and unusual character.

The width of the future vase can be different, and, basically, it depends on the personal tastes and preferences of each.

Sometimes the width of a vase depends on the style in which the vase is made, as well as on the style of the interior for which it was selected.

Note!

If the vase is floor-standing, then its height should vary between 40 and 100 centimeters. The vase does not have to be on the floor, in most cases it can be placed on a bedside table or on a table.

But on bedside tables and tables, the vase looks beautiful when its dimensions are not so huge. A large vase is best placed on the floor and placed in it beautiful flowers.

The material from which you are going to build a vase should also be considered carefully. After that comes the choice of the shape of the product. The form can be variable, and is selected at the discretion of the person himself.

The main thing is to include full imagination and harmonize the form with the style of the interior.

Vase shapes

So you can give a second life unnecessary things, get an original gizmo for the house and transform. Consider several simple master classes on making vases from cans, glass bottles and vessels, and other containers available on the farm.

Examples of do-it-yourself vases.

Materials for decoration

In the below suggested master classes on self-production vases will use materials that you are likely to find at home, and only a small part of them may need to be purchased. Of course, we are talking about decorating a finished waterproof vessel, since making a vase from scratch on their own will be an overwhelming task for most.

If you are not going to put fresh cut flowers in water in a vase, then the product can be made of a water-permeable material (cardboard base, for example, a coil or reel).

Cardboard bobbins.

Vase from a jar and twigs

To create a vase, you will need materials that you can probably find at home:

  • glass jar with a volume of 0.5, 1 or 1.5 liters;
  • twine or thin rope;
  • a small piece of burlap;
  • small-diameter cut branches (about 0.5 cm);
  • glue.

Advice: glass jar can be replaced with any other cylindrical container.

Phased production of a vase from twigs.

Phased production:

  1. Use a hacksaw to cut the collected branches into equal lengths. They should be the same height as the glass container.
  2. Use twine to tie the twigs together at the top and bottom ends, tying the twine in knots. As a result, you should get a kind of canvas of twigs.
  3. A piece of burlap, in length equal to the circumference of the can, must be wound around the vessel, the upper ends are wrapped inside the can and glued. The neat bottom can be left free.
  4. Next, a canvas of twigs should be wrapped around the container and tied in knots.

Alternatively, you can not use burlap, but plant the branches with glue directly on the jar. At the end, it is advisable to fasten the structure with a rope wrapped around the can in several turns. The product will look as decorative and aesthetically pleasing as in the version with burlap.

Ready product.

If you use not thin branches, but thicker segments, the vase will get a rougher design, but no less original:

  • universal spray paint of the desired color.

Colored bottles.

Step by step process:

  1. Wash the bottle inside and out, remove all labels and traces of glue.
  2. Place the bottle on a metal or wooden rod, turn it over - this will be a kind of support.
  3. The container can now be painted. It is advisable to use paint in a spray can for an even and uniform layer without smears.

To get a geometric or any other pattern, first cut strips (other shapes) from the adhesive tape and stick them on the container before painting.

For a more festive and dressy look, you can use sequins in an adjacent shade. With the help of paints and sparkles, it will turn out to create very effective ensembles.

Glitter decor.

Sequins can not cover the entire vessel as a whole, but only part of it:

Partial decor.

There is another option for coloring the bottle - from the inside. For this, you can use paint in cans. You will also need a metal baking sheet and mesh. Bottles need to be prepared, then pour a small amount of paint inside and carefully distribute it on all walls, turning the bottle over. To dry, the vessel must be turned upside down and left for a day.

Coloring of bottles inside.

Vase of clothespins and a tin

The next vase is suitable for a miniature bouquet of delicate flowers. For manufacturing, you will need a tin can, a set of clothespins.

Tip: to make the vase neat, it is important to use a small jar, the walls of which can completely hide under clothespins.

  1. Clean the jar from dirt, remove the label.
  2. Place the clothespins firmly on the sides of the jar. For reliability, you can use glue. We recommend purchasing a set of plain wooden clothespins for making a vase - they look as aesthetically pleasing as possible.

Tassel decor.

Using fabric

To create the next vase, we will use a simple set of materials and tools:

  • a glass container (it is better to be a glass one, since it looks beautifully from under the areas not covered with fabric);
  • a small piece of fabric (several harmoniously combined colors can be used, plain fabrics can be supplemented with printed ones);
  • glue;
  • scissors;
  • for decoration: twine, buttons, beads, ribbons, lace, etc.

Idea: instead of buying new fabric, it is better to look for unnecessary pieces among your handicraft materials, as well as sort out old, not worn things for a long time. Natural materials will look the most cute and tender: linen, cotton, natural lace.

Necessary materials.

Step by step manufacturing process:


The next photo shows another version of this technique:

Knitted texture

For the next super-simple master class, you will need an unnecessary knitted thing or yarn and knitting needles (if you have knitting skills), as well as a vessel. The bottom line is to make a kind of cover for the container. To do this, a sleeve can be cut off from an unnecessary knitted thing if it fits the vessel in diameter. One edge must be carefully tucked up and put on the container - voila, the decor is ready! If you know how to knit, then the original cover can be made in the evening. It is best to knit on four knitting needles to avoid seams.

By the way, according to the same principle, covers are made for stationery stands, candlesticks, cups and thermoses and even furniture.

Variations of covers.

Light bulb mini vase

The next vase from an incandescent light bulb is small in size, therefore it is suitable for placing a small bouquet or a single color. However, if you put together an ensemble of several "vases", you get a very effective picture.

Light bulb vase.

For manufacturing, prepare the following materials and tools:

  • several burned out or new bulbs;
  • twine or thin braid;
  • pliers;

Step by step production:

  1. Use a sharp knife to pry off the soldered part (insulation).
  2. Next, you need to take out all the "stuffing" from the light bulb: plug, electrodes, thread. It is important not to damage the base.
  3. Next, you need to wind a string around the base and make a small loop - our vase cannot stand, therefore it will have to be suspended.

Manufacturing process.

This completes the product! It remains to do the manipulations with the remaining bulbs, and make a kit.

Ready product.

An ensemble located on a tree of branches will look very original:

An ensemble of vases of light bulbs.

Ensemble

Such a composition looks very festive, elegant, gentle and at the same time, you will have to spend very little time to create it. The main thing is to choose containers that are identical in size and design. It is undesirable to fasten them with glue - so, if necessary, you can disassemble the ensemble. A much more practical and elegant option would be a beautiful satin or rep ribbon in several turns tied with a bow. With a narrow neck of containers, only one flower can be inserted into each one.

Method number 4: Decorating vases with paper

It will also turn out original if you glue the jars with paper, both decorative paper and any available, for example, old notes or sheets from long-forgotten books, will do.

Thin paper sticks best to a jar with homemade glue: boil flour with water. It is completely saturated with glue and envelops the glass. For heavier paper, this method will not work - it is best attached to double-sided thin tape.

Master class: Vase with kraft paper decor

An unusual vase will harmoniously fit into a rustic interior or country style.

To make this vase, take:

  • Round glass jar;
  • Double sided tape;
  • Kraft paper;
  • Scissors.

Step 1

Wash the jar thoroughly, remove the label from it. Cover the jar with double-sided tape.

We take any jar in the shape of a barrel

We glue the jar with double-sided thin tape

Take kraft paper and cut into narrow strips, which carefully, trying not to tear, twist into flagella.

We make stripes 5 cm wide

We twist the paper

Glue around slowly the jar with rolled kraft paper, lightly pressing it against the tape... The vase is ready - pour water into it and place a flower so that it begins to delight you with its aroma!

Method number 5: Decor with canvas

Canvas vase decor is perfect if your apartment is decorated in Rustic or Provence style. Where can I get the canvas? Simple advice: in any market or hardware store, canvas bags are sold, their cost is penny. We cut it into stripes and decorate whatever you want.

ATTENTION: The canvas is a very dense material, it is best held by assembly glue for construction in a gun on any basis. When gluing, it is necessary to press it very tightly against the jar!


Method number 6: Decorating the banks with lace

It is very easy to make a vase from a jar by gluing old lace on it. Mounting the lace on the jar is best done with silicone glue or assembly gun... The thinner the lace is, the tighter it will adhere to the glass, so give priority to synthetic lace.
