Make Your Own Dowel Vase Cover

This is a great video about how to make a Dowel Vase Cover. This could easily be a green project with some minor adjustments. You can use this idea to refresh an old vase that you might otherwise toss. You can find scrap dowels and use earth-friendly stains or paints.

I was thinking of not using dowels at all but fallen tree twigs and some left-over hemp twine I have. Don’t you think that would look great? I do. Of course, you’ll fill this with organic flowers. Kids would have fun with this project too I bet.

If you’d like to make this project you can find the video how-to at Lowes Creative Ideas.

Is there a craft project you’ve turned green? One that did not start out that way.
