Step-by-step

Step 1
You can see all the materials you need at a glance in our photo. The edding 3000 range gives you an overall choice of 20 bold colours, so just pick out your favourites. Rinse and wash the bottles thoroughly.

Step 2
First of all, peel off all the labels from each bottle, taking care not to leave any sticky residue. Any remaining residue can easily be removed under warm water.

Step 3
To create our motif, we covered a section of the bottle with masking tape and coloured in the rest using the edding 3000. It goes without saying that you could also pick a different motif and let your imagination run wild.

Step 4
Now simply pop in the flowers – and there you have it: your brightly-coloured vase is finished!
