After attending SNAP! in Lehi, Utah the girls and I decided that we'd love to use our samples of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint as this month's tutorial Tuesday project item. I had tons of ideas swimming through my mind as to what I could make with mine, and soon came up with this.
To make your own chalk paint mason jar, you'll need the following supplies:
- chalk paint
- foam brush
- mason jar {I used a recycled pizza sauce jar}
- twine
- hot glue/glue gun
- floral stems
First things, first. Put down some newspaper, get out your foam brush, and paint that mason jar! Mine only needed one coat {love when that happens}. There are some spots that are streaky and unpainted, but that's the look I was going for with this project!
Once my mason jar was dry, I wanted to add some jute twine to the rim to give the project a more finished look. Using a few dabs of hot glue, I wrapped the rim of the jar a couple of times, cut and arranged my floral stems, and voila!
I now have a brand new, perfect for Spring-time vase that I've added to my Spring mantel. Best part about the entire project?! I already had everything on hand...those are the best kinds of projects if you ask me!
Have you ever used chalk paint before? We'd love to see your projects and possibly
feature them soon!
