DIY Milk Glass Vase

With just a swirl of paint, recycle a plain container into a DIY Milk Glass Vase. Learning how to paint glass is simpler than it seems when you follow this easy tutorial. Transform clear glass and give it a pretty porcelain look. Milk glass has a clean, homey look due to the eggshell white. Try this technique with any sized container to create candle holders or cute jars for little odds and ends. It's surprising that acrylic paint on glass could create such a beautiful effect, but this crafter made it work. If you like the results, you could try it again with other colors.
