Nobile Glass Vase with Gold coloured leaves 25cm

Product Information

When I found these gorgeous veriegated gold leaf sheets, I fell in love with them. They were perfect for this Spring DIY project. I loved the combination of the yellow gold tones, the rose gold, copper, and the oxidized metal touches in the sheets. They were ideal for Spring! How to Make a DIY Gold Leaf Vase Finally, although it’s not necessary, you can seal the gold leaf on the vase. To do this, brush a generous amount of sealer on top of gold leaf. The sealer dries clear, so feel free to be generous with it. Note: The small brush strokes will show through the gold leaf a bit. I love it because I think it adds texture to the piece. Allow the adhesive to dry for about 15-20 minutes. The beauty of metals in home decor is that they can be used year-round. Metals are a wonderful way to enhance seasonal home decor. For instance, I love to use brass in Winter, gold in Spring, silver in Summer, and copper in Fall. However, they are all truly interchangeable throughout the year. Supplies Needed to Make a DIY Gold Leaf Vase

So your cost will really depend on what you already have on hand. I actually had all my supplies on hand. 😀👏👏 SUPPLIES: After making a couple of DIY gold leaf vases, I decided to make a candle holder too. Together they make a beautiful set. I am so excited to use these pieces this Spring and Summer in the farmhouse. They are perfect for a shelf, table, kitchen island, bathroom counter, or anywhere! Now that I’ve tried my hand at gold leaf application, I’ve got my eye on some other glass pieces in the farmhouse I want to add it to… The sky’s the limit!With a soft paintbrush or cloth, wipe off the access gold leaf flakes from the vase. You may notice that there are small spots of exposed adhesive you missed with gold leaf. That is okay. Use the flakes leftover on your workspace to cover those spots. NOTE: If you plan on washing your mixing supplies you will need to rinse them outside. You don’t want this stuff going down your drain at all)

Here it is! 😀 I frosted my pine cones with some modeling paste. I literally just dipped a butter knife in the paste and dabbed it onto the pine cones. First, wash and dry the vase to ensure it’s free from oils and debris. This is also the time to make sure the work surface is protected. The gold leaf sheets are very light and once they are applied to the glass vase, they begin to flake. I like to use a dropcloth or cover the work surface with butcher paper. Gather the supplies: Not going to lie I’m totally obsessing over these pine cones! I usually avoid big pine cones because I feel like they will look too bulky. These look lovely though!That’s it for this tin can up-cycle! Thank you for your amazing support!
