I know not everyone crafts like a rockstar (including me), so I thought today I would share a great beginner project that anyone can do– a rope vase.

Yep, super simple and looks great as a centerpiece or end table décor. And you only need a couple supplies to create your own rustic, rope vase:

• glass vases … Dollar Store or Goodwill

• sisal rope … found here

• hot glue gun … found here

• scissors

To make sure you’re flush with the bottom of the vase and you won’t have any weird gaps or waves, place it on your table and check the placement of the first line before you continue gluing the rest (trust me on this).

DIY rope vase tutorialWhile gluing, keep pinching together the rope to avoid gaps. Use extra hot glue where needed.

Make sure you slightly overlap the top edge of the vase with the rope. Use a good amount of hot glue under the rope edge to finish off. Then trim any excess rope hairs.

Not bad… but it could use some bling.

DIY rope vaseI’ve had these little flowers in my craft room drawers for about 2 years. Guess it’s about time I used them. They’re from Michael’s and I got them on clearance for about $1.50 for the pair I think.

 Not to shabby, right?
Especially for a project that cost just a couple bucks.
