A big thanks to eBay for making this DIY and blog post possible!  All opinions are mine.

Just before the holidays, I purchased my first piece of Mercury Glass!  It is a small candle holder that eventually made it's way into my downstairs half bathroom on my floating shelves.  I fell in love and knew that I needed more mercury glass in my home!  So I decided to take to my own devices and DIY a Mercury Glass Vase just in time to hold pretty spring flowers!

And I simply LOVE how it turned out!  Isn't it just so pretty!?

To create a mercury glass vase, you will need just a few simple items such as a Clear Glass Vase, Krylon Looking Glass Spray Paint (you can not substitute this one), a Spray Bottle, a little White Vinegar and a few other supplies you probably have around your home!

You can find all of these items you need to create this yourself (except the fresh flowers of course) at eBay!  Which, is honestly my latest obsession for finding unique DIY items at a great cost!  (I created my Repurposed Vintage Cranberry Bog Crate from items I found there too!)

I created a full How-To Guide on eBay's site for this project!  So head on over to see the full supply list and  the rest of my tutorial!
