2. FLOWER VASE
This one is the cutest flower vase ever and will be loved by all disney fans.


Step 1: Drink your coffee and remove the sticker using dishwashing soap and warm water. Wear safety gloves so that you don't harm yourself with warm water. Let the dry bottle dry completely after washing it.

Step 2: Using a sponge apply light green acrylic colour all over the outer part of the bottle. Apply second if needed, let the first one dry completely. Sponge makes paint application on glass very easy as compared to paint brush. (see image 1) then let the paint dry completely before moving to step 3.

Step 3: Draw Disney castle using pencil, apply very less pressure while drawing so that the green paint does not come off. and paint your drawn castle with your choice of shades. Again apply very less pressure while painting. Once the paint has dried give black border to the design using black acrylic colour and a very thin brush. (see image 2)

Step 4: Let everything dry completely and then apply matte finish Mod-podge with the help of sponge to make the paint last longer.
