Here’s a quick trick for making a one-of-a-kind vase using rubber bands and paintbrushes.
An ordinary jar that once held olives is wrapped in old paintbrushes to form a different kind of vase.
You'll need a lot of paintbrushes, a jar and some rubber bands. If you don't happen to have enough paintbrushes on hand – try your local dollar store – mine sells packages of 12 for under $2.00, or you can check online. Get a bag of rubber bands at Office Depot.
Stretch 3 or more rubber bands over jar and tuck paintbrushes in all the way around.
wow! What an amazing idea. I loved it. Thanx for sharing!
Have you considered used brushes with paint stains?
Yes – believe it or not – the brushes I used for this are used – mostly with water color paints – so they’re not showing their wear. But, I agree – a bunch of big brushes with oil paint remains would look fantastic. Thanks!
Very pretty, and great idea for recycling the glass jar!
I love this! Great job, Camilla
