DIY Project: How to Give a Vase Texture and Patina

I don’t think I will ever get over PJ and his DIY skills.

Remember how I mentioned he completed a couple of weekend projects a few days ago? One of them was taking a plain old ceramic vase and giving it some character by adding texture and patina with everyday household products like spackle. It took no time at all and now it sits in our guest room and looks so good against the green walls.

You can see how he made it in this one minute video, if you want!!
