The vase shown on the following post was the easiest ever way to dress up a plain vase for almost any occasion...and inexpensive too :o)  They now have the semi-transparent wall stickers/saying at the Dollar Tree. I have these on some of the walls in my home and I love them (see an example below).  First, pick out the saying you like best (I recommend doing this before you get the plain vase as there are different sizes).  Then, based on the size of the saying, apply the sticker to your plain vase (sometimes you might be lucky enough to find your vase in a local Goodwill or Thrift store but I usually find mine at TJ Maxx or Marshalls).  I then put the glass gems in the bottom (I've used clear but when you are not using a waterproof light in the bottom like I do a sea-green color brings light to the bottom of the vase).  It's a very easy project and the results are awesome and allows you to personalize the vase for gifts, occasions or for yourself :o)  Of course, I will be happy to sell you the finished product that would include the decorated vase, the gems and the waterproof light all for about $15.00 on average (based on what you tell me you want).

I got these cool new underwater, battery operated lights.  I couldn't wait to try them out so I made a vase for a Engagement party tonight and tried one in there.  It's hard to tell with the picture but I plan to take more pictures when I get the whole centerpiece, along with the vase and flowers, set up tonight.

 Surprise, Surprise, Surprise...more creations...but hand-painting these which can be used for candle-holders or vases.  Loved making these...haven't painted in years and years (25+!!) and have wanted to get back to it forever!

 More 'New-Moons' created for the 3-3 Craft Show. 
 I've made some of them to be Moons using battery twinkle lights and others to be used with candles with the opening at the top.

 These New-Moons ;^)  create a very dramatic lighting effect with reflected light coming through the gems.  I am not a photographer so my pictures do not show the total effect.
