Dollar tree ambiance #2

Hey there everyone! Tis the dollar tree season for me.

 I love to make crafts from the dollar tree this time of year.

It’s a lot of fun, cheap and very rewarding.

Make a dollar tree Christmas vase with tissue paper

 Last year I shared my Dollar tree ambiance candle and I had so many inquiries on how I did it.  I mention how I did it, but a visual would be better.  I am getting better at this blogging gig as I go along each year.

Start off with glass votives of choice.  I liked these little round fish bowl types with the tulip lip on top.

Pretty for a dollar each. Tissue paper of choice, ribbon and mod podge.

I cut my tissue paper in strips some wider than others.  I first mod podge a section of the votive vase at a time.

I adhere the mod podge lightly and paint over it.  I continue that until completely covered.  Do be careful and light handed with your brush strokes as the tissue paper will tear.  No worries though, just go over it or apply another layer of tissue paper over the tear. You will never know it.
