Another Inexpensive Use Of Gel Clings To Create One Or Several Decorative Christmas Vases

This project used green pine tree gel clings, and just like our blue snowman and snowflake gel cling vases, can be displayed alone or grouped together in 3’s using other glass vases of various heights. Showcase your beautiful vase or vases on a fireplace mantel, bookcase, and coffee table, or perhaps on a dining room table as a centerpiece.

Begin by adhering the pine tree gel clings to the outside bottom of your glass vase. Be sure to space the gel clings evenly around the vase creating a border. Repeat the same step creating a second border right above your first layer. Next, begin layering the inside of the vase starting with snow flurries, then a layer of bright white blanket type snow, and finish with small pinecones towards the top of the vase, leaving 2 inches of un-layered space (see below for photos).

Supplies:

Tall glass vase (if you don’t already have one, thrift stores sell all different sizes and shapes for just pennies.

1 Package of Gel Decorations, AKA “Gel Clings”- Green pine trees. If using a few vases, I would recommend trying different patterns with your gel clings for more visual interest.

1 Package of Blanket Snow, bright white
1 Package of Snow Flurries
Small pinecones

Please note that gel decorations are removable and reusable. Do not expose to high heat or direct sunlight on hot days, sticker can melt.
