Buttercream Glass Seed Bead Mix - 6/0

An ordinary glass vase gets a pop of color with swirls of paint and this easy-to-use medium. 

Colorful beaded bracelets have signaled summer for as long as the coolest counselors at camp have been stacking them up their wrists.

If you like to live on the bright side, dress up your colorful patterned plates with matte-finish flatware and a charming bow topper: Cinch a napkin in the middle using a playful elastic adorned with wooden beads. Add a circle name tag for each guest to round out the look.

To mimic icy branches, we used acrylic tubing and wintry blue beads.

When having guests for dinner, the last thing you want to do after spending so much time and energy cooking is worry about making a tablescape. In fact, you can create gorgeous, colorful accessories in under fifteen minutes with items you already have on hand.

Adorn a glass carafe with a fall-friendly motif — we chose an apple — then use it to serve cider all autumn long. The etched vessel also makes a pretty hostess gift for fall get-togethers.

Using the glass paint's unique consistency, this whirly-twirly look is achieved by slowly rotating the glass while swirling the paint.

Fear not, this festive project will help you raise a ghoulish glass to the spookiest day of the year.

We traded the original inset glass top of an inexpensive side table for a creamy custom-tiled one.

These canning jars were given a colorful, frosted makeover with specialty craft paint to look like sea glass and milk glass, respectively.
