SPRING DECOR FOR ONLY $1!


Create simple spring decor!

What you will need:

Artificial Flowers from Dollartree (I purchased 3)
Recycled Jars/Alcohol Bottles
Acrylic Paint or Food Coloring
Paint Brush
Scissors 
Ribbon (optional)
Water



Instructions:

Clean bottles and remove labels w/hot soapy water. Match acrylic paint to match the petals of flowers. The best paint to use is cheap paint! Try not to use the pricey stuff, it's all I had =(


Fill bottles with water. Apply paint to brush and dab before adding to bottle. Too much paint can cause globs in the water! Place lid and shake until paint has mostly dissolved. Remove lid and allow colored water to settle. Cut flowers to desired lengths and arrange to matching bottles like so.
