Christmas in July – Repurposed Mirror into Vase Base

Sharing is caring!

You are probably wondering what this post is about.  Or maybe I have heat stroke!  But no, friends, we are going to celebrate Christmas in July.  Every Wednesday throughout July a group of blogger friends and I will be hosting a blog hop. We will be bringing you wonderful ways to make your July Christmas special, and in my case to help with the heat stroke!  Today I present Christmas Decor, my repurposed Mirror into Vase Base.

Είναι πιθανόν να αναρωτιέστε τι ειναι αυτή η ανάρτηση; Ή ίσως έχω θερμοπληξία!   Αλλά όχι, φίλοι, πρόκειται να γιορτάσουμε τα Χριστούγεννα τον Ιούλιο. Κάθε Τετάρτη όλο τον Ιούλιο μια ομάδα blogger φίλες και εγώ θα φιλοξενούμε ένα blog hop.  Θα σας δειχνουμε  θαυμάσιους τρόπους για να κάνετε τα Χριστούγεννα τον  Ιούλιο  ξεχωριστο, και στη δική μου περίπτωση να βοηθήσει με την θερμοπληξία! Σήμερα  θα  παρουσιάσω  χριστουγεννιάτικη διακόσμηση,   έναν καθρέφτη  επαναπροσδιορισμένο σε βάση για βάζο.

Now because it is so hot, I needed to do something simple. This is what I found in my stash recently.  It was a mirror once upon a time. 

Αυτό το βρήκα μεσα στον  κρυψώνα μου πρόσφατα. Ήταν ένας καθρέφτης μια φορά κι έναν καιρό.

I removed the  broken glass and painted the pink plastic white. 

Έβγαλα το σπασμένο γυαλί και το έβαψα το ροζ πλαστικό λευκό.

And now the fun begins. I use it as a base/stand – call it what you will. Take a look around your house and add anything at all that looks Christmasy.  I have all my Christmas decorations packed away at this time of the year but I was still able to come up with some holiday looks. 

Και τώρα ξεκινά η διασκέδαση. Το χρησιμοποιώ ως βάση. Ρίξτε μια ματιά γύρω από το σπίτι σας και προσθέσετε οτιδήποτε που μοιάζει Χριστουγεννιατικο. Έχω όλα τα στολίδια μου κρυμμενα,  αλλά ακόμα βρηκα στολίδια για τα Χριστούγεννα.

You’ve seen this jar before when I upcycled it with the Snow Spray that Wasn’t. 

​Έχετε δει αυτό το βάζο πριν όταν το μεταμόρφωσα  με το σπρέι εδώ.

​Και αυτή η χρυσή γιρλάντα είχε προηγουμένως χρησιμοποιηθεί στη Φθινοπωρινή μου βινιέτα.

Of course since it is hot outside, I could not resist showing you just how versatile this base is by adding a beachy look to the collection.

Φυσικά, εφόσον κάνει ζέστη έξω, δεν μπορούσα να αντισταθώ να σας δείξω πόσο ευέλικτη ειναι αυτή η βάση, με ένα καλοκαιρινό λουκ.

Here I’ve added some dried up pomegranate branches which you have seen here. They add such a Christmasy look. 

Εδώ έχω προσθέσει μερικά αποξηραμένα κλαδιά του ροδιού που έχετε ξαναδεί εδώ.  Δίνουν. Χριστουγεννιατικο αέρα.

I do believe this was the easiest repurpose I have ever done. I hope that my Christmas Decor, repurposed mirror into vase base, has put you into the Christmas in July spirit.  You can also check out our monthly Handmade for Christmas series, where we make a gift each month so that by December we will have 12 Christmas gifts and not need to scramble around. 

Πιστεύω αυτό ήταν η πιο εύκολη  επαναπροσδιόριση που έχω κάνει ποτέ. Ελπίζω ότι σας έχει βάλει στο πνεύμα των Χριστουγέννων. Μπορείτε επίσης να ελέγξετε  τα Χειροποίητα Δώρα για τα Χριστούγεννα, όπου θα κάνουμε ένα δώρο κάθε μήνα, έτσι ώστε μέχρι τον Δεκέμβριο θα έχουμε 12 δώρα Χριστουγέννων και δεν χρειάζεται να τρέχουμε.

This vase is so versatile! I love it! I especially love it with the pine cones and with the sticks. I'm pinning this!!!

Mary, love the simplicity yet versatility of this repurpose! It'll look great at Christmas time as well as any other time, as you've displayed. Great job!!

I agree Keri it is so neutral that I can put anything on top of it and it will look fine.I think that's why I went with the white. Plus I happened to have it in front of me when I was touching up the metal chairs.

loving it! I think my favs are the beach and the cones :) What a great idea Mary and now I am going to be on the look out for a base to use for similar purposes! So versatile!

Mary

I'll tell you what, I'll give you this base with the cones and you can give me some of your fun Beachy Christmas decorations.

This is an easy and fun repurpose Mary and even though it's really hot here and hard for me to get into the Christmas spirit right now, time will fly and we'll be unpacking Christmas decor before we know it! I really like the beachy look you gave it but agree that there are a lot of fun possiblilities for the special season of the year to come!

Mary

That's exactly what I was thinking initially Katrin... too hot, no Christmas talk. But once I started on it, it went very fast. This one is like your 5 minute projects. ;)

Mary, What a clever re-purpose that dresses up so beautifully for Christmas or anytime! You never cease to amaze me :) Hopefully all the Christmas cheer will bring cool thoughts your way.

I hope so Laurie. I will think about snow and Santa's reindeer.
