Party DIY {Modern Stripped Votives}

I shared with you yesterday the new party trend for 2013, elegant and modern with a vintage touch. But, elegant and modern doesn't mean you can't create your own party details. Always a fan of the DIY, I wanted to show you a way to create a centerpiece representing the new trend with a handmade touch. These stripped votives were easy enough to make and would fit any event perfectly. The stripes are a bit quirky with the gray adding a modern touch. The modern shape of the votives completes the whole look. Here's how to make your own!

:: Supplies ::
3 Glass Cylinder Vases of Varying Sizes
Painter's Tape
Gray Spray Paint

:: Directions ::
1. Tape each vase with painters tape, leaving 1" of space between each piece of tape.
2. Spray with gray paint. Let dry and spray a second coat.

3. Once paint is dry, remove painter's tape.
4. Fill votives and decorate!
