To make the jar look like it’s made of ceramic, she pre-mixed baking soda in a bowl of paint.

The abrasive texture of the baking soda will create a rough surface on the jar rather than a smooth surface.

Those on a budget might want to consider purchasing miniature paint pots from Bunnings to decorate multiple vases in different colors.

Once the paint has dried, Karolina wrap the strands around the glass jar.

Both old glassware and ceramics can be used

Use the typical paint pots from the Bunnings Warehouse to stay on budget and choose a variety of colors

Any paint can be used as long as it is water-based

Use as much double-carb soda as needed to create the desired consistency

Paint the inside, the outside, and the bottom of the vase, too

Make sure the paint is completely dry before adding another coat of paint, or it will peel off

Add as many layers as desired – the more paint is added, the more original it will look
