Texture is essential in any room, and a textile vase is a great way to incorporate it. To start this DIY, wipe your glass vase so it is free from dust and debris. Then in a container, mix your preferred paint color with baking soda. The powder is key to creating a textured look. Go for light gray to mimic cement, black to modernize things, or a vibrant hue to bring in bright colors. A quarter cup of baking soda for every cup of paint will do.
Protect your counter with a piece of cardboard or foil and start painting. Slather all sides, the rim of the vase, and inside the opening. You can dap the wet paint with a crumbled paper towel to double down on the textile effect. It will add a popcorn ceiling design. Let your creation dry, and you're all set. Now you have a decorative piece to zhuzh up any desk, mantel, or shelf.
