If you have glass vases lying around the home just collecting dust and you don’t know what to do with them aside from putting flowers in them you can use them for various other purposes. No matter what shape or size the vases are they can still be used.
Glass vases are very versatile besides just using them for fresh flowers and come in handy around the home especially in the bathroom. If you have some small vases you can use them in the bathroom to store your cotton balls and q-tips in. If you have a larger more square shaped vase you can add some sea sand and arrange some large pebbles and shells forming a design which looks attractive.
Very large vases can be used as a fruit bowl just add colourful fruit in such as apples, oranges and any other fruit and place it on the counter for easy access. Smaller glass vases can be filled with glass marbles and placed around the home.
Take smaller oval vases and half fill them with water add a few petals or flowers and then add some floating candles which can enhance any table setting. Another great idea for small vases is to make some attractive gel candles which are quick and easy to make and can be used around the home to add that extra romantic warmth.
Another really great idea for vases that no longer have any use is to make candle bowls. You will need to purchase some wood glue and some mulberry paper which comes in the most exquisite colors and a small tin of varnish. Take the mulberry paper and tear it up into smaller pieces once that is done glue them onto the vase and once it is dry varnish. Place some sea sand at the bottom and place a candle in the middle. These are really attractive and eye catching.
