Soho Art: How to Make a Vase

Making Soho art is so much fun….and easy, too….when you have the right product!  The Kool Tak™ Premium Extreme 6” Tape is the secret material that makes this project a snap to create while the Kool Tak™ Vintage Tones Foil gives the project an upscale look.

Soho Art: How to Make a Vase

Use the vase as a decorative piece or add a candle inside and it becomes an attractive candleholder. The Premium Extreme 6” Tape will hold up to the heat of a candle inside.

The same tape is used to create the leaf embellishments that give the vase a more feminine look.

Materials

Tools

  • Scissors
  • Craft knife
  • 1/8-inch hole punch

Instructions
1. Wash the vase to remove any fingerprints.

2. Wrap the lower portion of the outside of the vase with the Kool Tak™ Premium Extreme 6” Tape.

3. Measure about 1/2-inch from the top of the tape and lightly score a line around the tape-covered vase. Create a second score line 1/4-inch from the first score line. Use the craft knife to remove the tape between the two score lines.

4. Apply the darker brown foil around the tape on the top.

5. Apply the blue-silver foil around the bottom of the vase. Apply the darker brown foil on any small open areas of tape that the blue-silver foil did not cover.

6. You could end the project here for a very contemporary and masculine-looking vase or continue with the instructions for leaf embellishments.

7. Print and cut out the leaf pattern.

8. Cut out two 3 by 3-inch square pieces from the six-inch tape. Apply the gold foil onto the sticky side of each of the square tape pieces. Use the leaf pattern to cut out a leaf from each of the tape pieces. Punch a small hole at the top of each tape leaf.

9. Remove the backing paper from the first tape leaf. Apply the threading beads onto the tape. Press the beads down to secure them into the tape. Place the micro beads over any open areas on the tape and remove the excess beads.

10. Remove the backing paper from the second tape leaf. Apply the glitter over the first third of the leaf. Remove the excess glitter. Apply the threading beads over the center of the leaf. Remove the excess beads. Add the micro beads over the remaining third of the tape leaf and over the threading beads to fill any exposed tape.
