Let me just say I am obsessed with glitter and sequins. I love how their sparkle can liven up almost anything and give it a new look. Recently I went to a fashion boutique in Paddington which featured a gorgeous vase that incorporated pretty bright flowers (fresh or fake) in a water bottle vase with a sparkle of sequins. It’s easy to do and it’s a real attention grabbing piece to add to any area of your home.

To do it yourself you will need : water bottle vase – under $5 at Ikea, a packet of sequins – available at most discount and craft stores less than $3 and a bunch of flowers – fresh or fake.

1. Add the packet of sequins to the vase and fill the vase with water – close the lid and shake;
2. Slowly empty the water holding your finger partly over the vase opening to ensure the sequins do not come away with the water;
3. Once the water is emptied, close the lid and shake again to spread the sequins around;
4. Finally, add your flowers and style as needed.
