GLASS HALF FULL

Get creative with old jars, bottles and bowls

- KIM ARENDSE

IN THE GARDEN

An eye-catching garden is often made up of small, lush nooks such as this lovely one. A simple chair topped with glass containers makes for a sweet littl focal area.

VAMPED-UP VASES

Use a collection of glass bottles of various sizes and shapes to create a striking focal point. Insert fresh or dried flowers and use the necks to hold dinner candles.

DECOUPAGE IT!

Decoupage is the transfer of paper images onto a surface such as glass, wood or cans. Here, glass bottles receive a makeover using a pretty floral print. Use a good, clear glue such as modge podge (available at most hardware or craft stores) to secure your print to the object.
