One of the things I love most about making DIY projects is that I can create unique items that are certainly as unique as my style and unique as I am. This is a great yet simple craft that shows you the wonderful transformation that a bit of fabric and some imagination can create. I have a few sewing crafts that I have shared that can be another way to use your favorite fabric.

For today’s project I am using fabric squares that I had from my earlier fabric designs I have made available in my Spoonflower Store. When you submit patterns to sell on Spoonflower you have to purchase a sample to validate the design, colors, and scale. I love making some unique DIYs with test samples!
Materials needed for the fabric flower vase DIY:
- 3 fabric squares – 6 in x 6 in fabric squares – you can buy fat quarters at Spoonflower as well
- Dollar Store glass flower vase
- Sewing machine with thread and needle
- Fabric Mod Podge
- Sponge paint brush
How to make a fabric flower vase
First, measure the vase and cut the fabric to the correct size to cover the full circumference of the glass flower vase.
Set up the design based on the fabric you select. For the fabric I am using I decided to make a border.
Sew the fabric so that the overall width and height of the fabric square cover the full circumference of the flower vase.
Apply a thin layer of the fabric mod podge to the back side of the sewn fabric.
Also, apply a thin layer of the fabric mod podge to the glass vase.
Carefully attach the fabric to the glass vase. Continue to add mod podge as you move around the circumference of the glass vase.
Then using your fingers fold the top of the fabric over the top edge of the vase.
Allow the fabric flower vase to dry for 45 minutes to an hour.
Once the fabric flower vase is fully dry add the flowers and decorate the home.
To finish the flowers use the fabric mod podge to glue in the wax stamps as the flower centers to the fabric flowers.
Enjoy the fabric flower vase and decorate the home
I really love how this flower vase is just completely unique. Make sure to get your favorite fabric and mix and match colors and floral styles.
I also love how you can create a simple quilt-style design with multiple fabric squares and bring quilting into home decor.
The sky is the limit on how many variations you can make with so many fabric designs available.
I love making patterns for fabric and other products. You can find my designs also available at Raspberry Creek Fabrics.
