DIY with Frances: Beer Bottle Vase

You have no idea what I went through to make those tulips stand staight. Fucking flaccid dutch bastards.

Not like we need more proof that binge drinking is awesome; but here it is anyway- something fun and artsy to do with your empties.

Design stores have know for a long time that spray painting a normal object white is an easy way to make it classy and expensive in T minus five- just look at all that crap they sell at Iko Iko.

So I bought this four pack and made my boyfriend drink it( I'm one of those annoying girls that won't drink beer*); then went to town.

WHAT YOU NEED:

Two things. Boom. Make sure you bring your ID when you buy the spray paint.

METHOD:

1. Soak your bottles in hot water and scrub the labels off. If they're not coming off, a little tea tree oil in the water will help.

2. Put some newspaper down outside and do two coats; leaving twenty minutes between. Make sure you get in all the nooks and crannies around the lip of the bottle.

3. Let dry overnight, jam in your flowers and you're good to go!

*My drink of choice is one part vodka to one part lemon juice; on the rocks, because that's what Chelsea Handler drinks, and she dates 50 Cent, so, yeah. QED. Also, soft drink mixers are just calories you're not getting back.
