DIY Shell Vase – Craft Idea

Keep scrolling to learn how I made this DIY Shell Vase come to life within minutes!!!

For the past few weeks, I have seen some fellow craft bloggers playing with the NEW Mod Podge Collage Clay.

After seeing all their wonderful posts and DIY craft ideas, I decided I wanted to play with some too. {It’s like permanent frosting for your crafts!} So I headed to my local Michaels to scoop some up for my own craft collection.

After playing with some ideas in my head, I came up with today’s simple shell vase decor piece.

Not only do I love it – BUT I also love the fact that it was soooo easy and affordable! {with a coupon from Michaels, I spent less than $10 for ALL my supplies and I still have plenty of shell vase filler pieces and collage clay left to do another project!}

So below is my quick vase tutorial and my inspiration for you! Hopefully I inspire you to grab some of the new clay material and make a vase of your own today! Remember – it’s the perfect way for easy beach decor on the cheap!

DIY Shell Vase Craft Supplies:
* Large Glass Vase {Dollar Tree}
* Shell Vase Filler Pieces {Target but Dollar Tree has some too}
* Mod Podge Collage Clay {Michaels or through through the posted link}

Directions:
* Slather a good amount of your collage clay all over your glass vase.
* Like a puzzle, place your shell pieces on top of the glue. Repeat until your vase is completely covered.
* Once done, set aside to let the glue air-dry for 24 hours.
* Then use your new beautiful vase like you normally would. Perhaps even buy yourself some flowers as a pat-on-the-back for a job well done!
