It’s time again for our monthly Thrift Store Decor projects. I’m so excited that we’ve got some new bloggers that have joined the fun. I’ll tell you all about them in a minute. This month I made another addition for my summer mantel… a cute Starfish Vase.
Let me show you what it started as…
My youngest daughter actually found this vase. She thought it looked fun and the price was right… $1!
So she got some spray paint in a beautiful, beachy blue. Two light coats was all in needed.
To add a more nautical vibe I added some rope around the top. I just weaved it in and out and then tied it together with a couple knots.
I think it turned out cute. I added some starfish inside… they look like they are trying to escape.
Thrift stores are the perfect place to experiment with your diy skills too. Grab something for $1 and practice your spray painting skills.
Now we’ve got lots of other great Thrift Store decor makeovers to share with you…

July 29, 2015 at 6:31 amIn my next life I’m going to have a room in my house dedicated to the ocean. If I can’t sit and admire the view of the beach at least I could admire it in the house.
