How to make your own DIY drippy vases

• Resene Waterborne Smooth Surface Sealer
• Resene testpots in your choice of colours; Nikki used Resene Cosmos, Resene Tall Poppy, Resene Burnt Crimson and Resene Sunglo
• Testpot brush
• Vases of your choice

Instructions

1. If your vases have a smooth finish, i.e. if they are glazed or glass, coat them with Resene Waterborne Smooth Surface Sealer.
2. Paint the vases in your choice of base colour – Nikki used Resene Cosmos. Leave to dry.
3. Turn the vases upside down, and steady any vases with a narrow neck by placing them in a plastic pottle. Pour your contrasting colour slowly over the base and let it drip down the sides. Nikki used a selection of dark burgundies.

Top tip:  Make fun pots for kids with FX Nightlight glow-in-the-dark paint. Simply drip it on as the last colour for a fun glow-in-the-dark effect to give your children something to look at as they drift off to sleep.
