How To Seal A Painted Vase WITHOUT Resin! ~ Finishing An Acrylic Pour Vase
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Do you have a painted vase that you are looking to seal? Are you wanting to find an alternative to resin as a vase finish? This video will show a cheap and easy way to get a durable finish on a painted glass vase!
I use Rustoleum clear gloss spray to finish the vase, then add my personal touch: I gorilla-glue a plastic circle to the base to prevent the vase from sticking to your table or desk!
This method only works if the vase is 100% covered with paint (no clear portions of glass). Check out my vase-painting videos to see some examples of making gorgeous layered designs with Apple Barrel Pouring Medium!

A couple of tips for you. There are no drips at the lip of the vase if you use a popsicle stick to swipe while the vase is drying. Do it about 3 times (10-15 minutes apart) and you are good to go. Also, when storing your clear spray paint, turn the can upside down, covered, to store. No more clogged nozzles!

Hi Noreen, The way my vases sit on the cups, there isn’t space to swipe the dripping paint. I don’t mind having to trim them 😊

Noreen, I love your idea about the popsicle sticks. It works great because I do not like the drips on my vases.

I think I prefer Anna’s method for drips. Running a popsicles stick may distort the pattern at the top of the vase. ✌️💜😊

How durable does the clear spray keep on the vase? Can you put water and flowers into it and clean it (not scrubbing of course)?
Just love this and the vase is so beautiful! Can't wait to try this.

@@marlenegould9954 absolutely! Because the inside is still glass, it’s totally waterproof. I would only gently hand wash the vase, rather than a long soak or in the dishwasher, but I have a vase that I’ve been using successfully for a few years!
Thank you for this tip about the plastic circle. I tried gluing metallic feet to my vase with disastrous results. Your tip will correct that problem.

You could also use the plastic disc to protect the top of your countertop or wooden furniture piece instead of a felt pad. Great idea, and you can still see the paint design. 😊❤

Great tips - Thanks much! I was dreading thought of working with resin just to clear coat & seal painted glass vase ~ so glad to know a couple coats of gloss spray will do the trick just fine. (Gotta' love Rust-Oleum! All good stuff!) Lovely vase... Don't know where you got plastic circle for bottom, but figure I will try to cut 1 out from a not-recyclable bakery cookies container. I try to reuse/repurpose anything can't recycle, but it's messy & takes room to store the stuff while waiting for way to reuse them. Sure does make me more aware how much plastic is NOT recyclable in my community!😒 Since you have bottle of bubbles handy (I'm usually only person I know with those in hand), you may already know how great Yoplait containers are to reuse for children's painting (& bubbles) containers that do not tip over easily.

Anna, a couple of questions or more, lol. Enjoy watching your video and have learned allot. How long do you need to let your vases or canvases dry before sealing them. Where do you get the round base cover? Do you use the spray also on your canvas to seal them?

Where do you get your vases and the acrylic disks that you use for the bottom? Do you have those dimensions planned in advance? It seems like the disk might’ve been a tiny bit smaller than the bottom but I don’t think that would have been noticeable to most people. I also wonder if you sign your work. Of course this isn’t a painting but it is an unique piece of art. I think it would actually add more value if it had a small signature at the bottom edge. I wouldn’t put it on the vinyl surface because that can probably be removed. A signature definitely adds value to your work.

So far I have bought inexpensive vases from Walmart or a dollar store. The plastic discs I get from Amazon! They come in a number of sizes, and yes this was slightly smaller than ideal, but not bad. I have thought about signing the bottom of my vases before sealing the vase, just have never done it yet!

Possibly! I haven’t tested that. It might leave brush strokes from where you apply it.
Would this lovely vase be dishwasher safe? Or would a dishwasher wash off the varnish and paint? Even if handwashing, how does it stand up to hot soapy sudsy water for cleaning?
@AnnaBlountArt

I would not recommend putting this in the dishwasher! When I wash it by hand I try to have it submerged for only a few seconds, which hasn’t been an issue. But you wouldn’t want to soak it or scrub it.
