Nothing like a 99¢ thrift store glass vase to get your creative juices flowing, eh? As soon as I picked it up I knew what it would become…a spray paint glass vase for jumbo jingle bells.

Create a simple and inexpensive DIY spray paint glass vase with black paint. Such an easy decor idea.

It’s the last Thrifty Style Team get-together of the year and I wanted to share a project that you could not only create and use now in your holiday decor, but anytime of year.

DIY Spray Paint Glass Vase

A few weeks ago I found a box of big brass jingle bells while I was out Christmas shopping and knew that my cheap find would be perfect for them.

Of course they couldn’t go into a plain glass vase. I had to fancy it up a bit…make it worthy of jumbo brass jingle bells.

Like most of my projects, I wanted to keep it simple so I decided to just use spray paint to give it a facelift. I didn’t want to cover the whole thing with paint so I grabbed some painter’s tape and created a couple of stripes.

The rim was also taped and I stuffed paper inside to keep any overspray out.

To set off the gold in the jingle bells, I decided to go with a flat black paint.

All it needed was a couple of light coats of paint. It really covered nicely and dried quickly.

This literally took me about 10 minutes, plus a little bit of drying time, to put it all together.

Not bad for a 99¢ thrift find (and a box of jumbo jingle bells), if I do say so myself. Now I need to find a way to use my super cool spray paint glass vase after the holidays. Hmmmm…

12 days left. Are you ready?

  2. I almost missed this post! So glad I found it on your Christmas tour post. I have tons of these glass vases and this is filling me with inspiration to paint them the way you did. Thanks so much, and Merry Christmas.

  7. LOVE THIS! Where did you find those bells? Or you could leave them on your (cute ) porch with my fur stool in case I happen by 🙂 Whew, this could be a long list. Have you considered listing some of your adorable creations on line for sale? Many people do this and yours are so original…sold as OAK (one of a kind) I see it on etsy all the time.

    • Thanks so much Jillian! I found the bells at Target. It was the only box, and it was pretty beat up, so I rescued it. I knew I could do something with them. 😉

      You are creating quite the list. If the stool or bells ever go missing, I’ll know who’s behind it. ;P

      Hmmm, I never thought about selling my stuff. I’m not sure I’d have the time to devote to it with the blog. If I ever give up blogging, maybe I’ll give it a go. Thanks for the vote of confidence. xx

  12. Such a simple idea, with great results, where did you find the small boxwood wreath in the picture. I having been trying some reasonable priced to hang on the back of my chairs for the kitchen

    • Thanks so much! It was a very simple idea and I had no idea how it would turn out. I’m thrilled that it worked (and relieved 😉 ). The little wreaths are from a website called Bella Marie, https://www.bella-marie.com/. I’ve bought quite a few preserved boxwood wreaths from them, and all different sizes. Great quality and they have aged well. I highly recommend them. I’d love to hear about your experience if you order from them. Hope this helps. 🙂
