Hi All,

In this instructable, I will share, how to upscale glass jars into vases. Simple steps that anyone can follow at home without the need of expensive equipment or tools

  • Old Glas Jars, any shape and size works
  • Wood pattern Vinyl sticker
  • Box cutter
  • Measuring Scale
  • Pencil
  • Liquid Soap
  • Hand Sanitizer

Cleaning Bottle

  • Most of the glass jars have annoying stickers on them
  • removing these are a challenge, in itself
  • Soak the bottles in warm soapy water for an hour
  • Using a utensil scrubber, peel as much of the label as possible
  • Resoak the bottles if necessary and repeat scrubbing
  • Sometimes the glue does not come off, use hand sanitizer to remove any traces of the glue
