How do I make a colorful Mug Vase for flowers?
To start this project, tape off the top and bottom of your mug with painter’s tape.
Using shades of orange, coral and pink start to create different sizes of dashes and dots.
I continued to add more paint to fill out the mug.
Next, I used thin painter’s tape to create a pattern along the mug’s handle.
After removing the tape, a colorful DIY Mug Vase was left!
I adore using monochrome colors in my floral arrangements. For this arrangement, I used a rosey peach colored rose, along some simple eucalyptus pieces.
I love that the colors of the mug vase tie into the colors of the roses. And there is nothing more lovely than the smell of fresh flowers in your home!
