this is the first time that i have seen your channel. wow. such a nice project. want to try. i am however, thinking of using a large vase that is looking rather trashish. couldn’t i use cement or something so that it can withstand the outside weather? sounds funny, anyway, ideas? i am so happy to have found this website. made my day. thanks.
Thank you Marlene, you’re so kind! So happy to hear from you. We have not tried cement on a project like this, but it just may work. We’d love to hear your results! We have used the featherweight concrete over plywood to create a concrete countertop. https://www.2thesunnyside.com/inexpensive-master-bathroom-makeover/ It worked really well for that. If you have any questions or comments we’d love to hear from you!
Can you please post what colors you used for the darker vase?
Thank you for your question Jamie. For the main color we used Perfect taupe, Behr sample then for the shading colors we used Ceramcoat, Autumn Brown, Burnt Siena, Candy bar and a mossy green color. I hope this is helpful for you.
What was the vase made of…..ceramic, pottery, glass?
Hi Kathy, the vase was an old ceramic vase. This technique also works on glass too.
LOved your tutorial… voice pleasant and nice you made parts go faster…
Will try it soon and comment when I finish some.
Thank you Anne. We’d love to hear how yours turns out.
awesome, great directions, my next project!
Thank you for visiting our site Patricic. Let us know yours turns out!
Looks good. Had a real belly laugh when you said add dirt to the joint compound! It totally makes sense, just funny. You did a great make over. Is it sealed for outside? Wonder if this would hold up, as long as no danger of frost or freezing. Never used to consider this until I moved to COLD country! It’s not yet Halloween and it’s snowed and now it’s 31 out!
Thanks Jaxs, I’m glad we put a smile on your face. I did not put any sealer on it. It you were to put it outside I would use a exterior sealer. I would be concerned though if there was extremes in temperature, I’m not sure if it would crack from the change in temperatures.
