A step by step tutorial showing you how to DIY a faux clay textured painted vase. Complete with pictures & direct supply links for your convenience<\/em>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of my favorite Studio McGee purchases is a large, white textured vase. I have successfully copied and created this finish on multiple glass vases using only 2 supplies! The special ingredient? Baking soda. <\/p>\n\n\n

Adding baking soda to paint gives it texture and helps the paint grip onto a smooth glass surface. The possibilities to customize this basic paint + baking soda recipe to fit your needs are endless. Often, I just like the textured white look. But you can add layers of paint, mud or even coffee grounds for a multidimensional aged look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you follow me on Instagram,<\/a> <\/em>you know I love second hand shopping. I frequent my favorite local thrift store at least once a week, and enjoy going to estate sales on the weekend. These are two great places to find the perfect vase for this project!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a good shape? Some elements to look for are large, robust, and round- see these<\/em><\/a> for inspiration.<\/p>\n\n\n
