A Stick Vase


  Who says decorating has to be expensive?  Brighten up your home for Fall with items you may have in your yard.


Gather some sticks, cut them to size, then glue them around a spaghetti jar, for an inexpensive vase!





If you're interested you can view my previous spaghetti jar vases here and here.

*Thank-you so much to Donna@ Funky Junk Interiors for featuring my vase on her Facebook page!

What a great idea Brandi, I love that natural look. I saw a picture where someone had used a stick in a caramel apple, it was so cute! ;D

I LOVE this! Yes, the look is so wonderfully rustic, but the natural element in itself does me in every time. Nature never fails you!
