Step 1

Clean the vase before you start. If you'd like to use one of ourtemplates, then simply place the design template behind the glassvase so you can trace it.

Step 2

Now comes the fun part - the decoration. You can draw or write onthe vase in the colour of your choice with an edding chalk marker.Hint's and tips: when you buy the chalk markers, choose colours thatare complementary to your vase (such as green and red, blue andorange) for a striking effect. Alternatively, choose a lighter or darkershade in the same colour range as the glass to create a harmonioustonal effect for your spring decoration.

Step 3

The great thing about the liquid chalk in this edding marker is that ifyou want to switch the spring motif over to a summer look after a fewmonths, simply wipe off the decoration with a damp cloth and startagain.
