Whether you’re lucky enough to get some flowers on Valentine’s day or if you treat yourself (yeah!) you’ll need some place to put them. How about giving your plain dollar store vase a little touch of golden love? It’s so easy that I’m almost embarrassed to show you. So first I’m going to show you how beautiful the end result is. And BTW – this vase will last way beyond Valentine’s day. It will look great in your space any time of year. It would also be perfect for a bridal shower or wedding centrepiece. Time to get your craft on!

I had some fun styling this one. I mean, my job was pretty easy when I’m working with so many beautiful objects.

If you want to make one of these beauties for yourself or maybe as a gift, keep reading for the simple instructions. All you need is some gold leaf (my new favourite craft supply of choice), spray glue, scrap paper and a dollar store vase.
