We are all aware of the importance of using waste and recycling it, as a way to contribute to the environment. Well, here we will see a clear example of this, through DIY works to achieve beautiful decorated vases.

Flowers are synonymous with delicacy, beauty and freshness, so they are one of the most beautiful natural elements to give life to the decoration of our homes and even more so if the vase through which they are carried is beautiful and unique in design, since that will become excellent allies when it comes to achieving an original decoration.

Vases decorated with ropes

What you need are glass or plastic containers that are no longer used, string (whatever you want; it can be string or wool, or string of any material), glue, and scissors. You can get any type of rope in barracks or hardware stores.

Simply tape one end of the string to the top of the container and start twisting it around the container from top to bottom. In this way we ensure that the most visible part remains uniform, while the small portion that is uncovered with thread can then be covered with a specially cut segment or with the plant that is placed inside the jar.

If you do not like the natural color of the rope, you can opt for colored threads or later paint it to your liking. The idea of using a glass bottle and placing a candle inside will create a real contrast candlestick.

The idea is very simple, fast, cheap and very versatile, since there are many types of rope, as well as the shape of the containers. Enjoy this work and feel good at the same time, for doing good, for the conservation of the planet.

Materials and tools

• Rule
• Pair of scissors
• Pencil
• pretty design paper

• Spray adhesive or other suitable glue
• Containers to cover such as vases, cans, glass jars, etc.

Log vases

Flowers are undoubtedly the weakness that many of us have in common, so much so that we like to enjoy their beauty and aroma that they can also bring to our interiors, but also many times we are bored or simply do not share the taste for traditional vases that the market offers us.

That is why today we wanted to present you with a more rustic and versatile alternative in terms of vases; Since this proposal proposes us to build from the most diverse trunks that we can find in nature, beautiful vases to put our bouquets of flowers or favorite dried herbs.

To get them, only a trunk of the length and width that each one likes is required, as well as the species of tree that we like the most, since the color and texture of each trunk will depend on the species. of tree to which it belongs.

After choosing this trunk, the most common way to build these vases is to hollow them out in the central (vertical) part of it, so that a jar or container can be placed there where we will place our favorite flowers.

Other alternatives may be to grab a kind of thin trunk, hollow it out and pass a versatile glass vase through it, so that the trunk only constitutes the support.

More rustic vases can be made with pieces of trunk, thus being ideal for interiors decorated in a rustic style.

Also another way can be to opt for a longer trunk and arrange it horizontally, making a gutter all along it, which will be covered with many flowers along it.

Vases made with pipes

Those looking for original proposals will be able to build beautiful and creative vases with pieces of PVC pipe, which can be painted in a beautiful color to achieve success.

Light bulb vases

One way to make beautiful vases while recycling is to transform old light bulbs into creative flower holders.

Vases decorated with knitted fabric
