Upcycling Vases With Gel Medium
In this class, we will look at how you can upcycle bottles and vases using Gel Medium.
Class Overview
In this class, we will look at upcycling bottle vases and giving them a new lease of life.
I bought these bottle-shaped vases, along with a whole load of other vases from a retired florist, to decorate them and give them a new look.
For this project, I am using Gel Medium and other embellishments.
I will show you:
- how I first experimented with the Gel Medium
- how to apply it to the glass
- how to colour the Gel Medium
- and how to finish the look.
By the end of the class, you should understand how to use Gel Medium to decorate vases and other projects.
