I’m a bit of a hoarder and this applies to envelopes, boxes and tissue paper – pretty much any packaging which comes through my letter box. I  had some gorgeous Orla Kiely tissue paper in my stash and came up with the simplest upcycle.

I used:

Orla Kiely tissue paper
Mod Podge
Glass flower jar

I cut my tissue paper to fit around my glass jar. Then I used Mod Podge painted directly to the glass jar.

I carefully applied my tissue paper and left it to dry.

I’ve already filled my glass jar with some daffodils which I spotted at the garden centre at the weekend. There’s something about a bunch of daffodils. I just love watching them open up and my new Orla Kiely vase really sets them off.

    This would look good as a lantern with a battery operated tea light inside, it would shine nicely through the Orla pattern.
    Great idea! Thanks for sharing
