Last week Kimba from A Soft Place To Land showed us all how to make a vase wrapped in twine that was originally inspired by these vases from Ballard Designs.
I thought I would give this a try as well and pass it onto my Mom for a little Mother's Day gift. So, I pulled out the glue gun, bought some twine/rope and found a vase to use. 
I then just started gluing (I found it easiest to apply the glue directly to the vase) and wrapping.
Fill it with some flowers and you will have this...
Thank you for giving me such a special day.
We had a wonderful day yesterday. I absolutely treasure the days that we are all together as a family. I am blessed beyond measure to be the mother of these children.
Love the pictures! And the vase turned out great!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to jump on twine bandwagon - looks so cool (and easy, I like easy)! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful children and mommy!
ReplyDeleteThe vase looks great. I remember making something like this when I was a child (in the early 70s). I made my dad some wrapped coffee cans to keep little things like rubber bands and nails in. He kept them and used them the rest of his life. :-)
Happy Mother's Day! Glad you had a great time with your children. And the vase looks so pretty!
