We’re all about a test tube vases in the studio, hanging or otherwise. But sometimes it’s a bit of a challenge to enjoy them as much as you would like on your desk, what with their inability to stand up and all. I mean, who had time to hold your vase up all day long? In the absence of a high school science lab from which to sneak off with a wooden stand, we got a little crafty and created these simple bolt vases. All they’ll set you back is a trip to your local hardware store. Read on for a ten minutes DIY!
Test Tube Bolt Vases
You need:
- Test tube vases
- Bolts
- E6000 Glue
How to:
1. Apply some glue to the inside of your bolt
2. Stick the test tube vase inside the bolt and allow the glue to dry completely
3. Cut flowers to size to fit inside the vases
This is absolutely brilliant! I’ve been seeing test tube vase DIYs lately but most of them were the hanging type. I wanted something that I can put on my desk so thank you for this! 🙂

[…] Surfade in på fina bloggen ”A pair & a spair” och hittade detta underbara DIY-tips. Små provrösvaser gjorda av bult som man hittar till en billig penning på en järnaffär. Jättefin att ge bort i present och sätta ihop flera i en grupp. På bilderna är det sommarblommor men det hade varit lika fint med en liten grankvist i varje Spana in steg för steg här! […]
[…] רעיון לקוויק DIY – אוהבת את הרעיון של שילוב מעולמות התעשייה הכבדה (ברגים וכו’) והמעבדה (טיובים, מבחנות וכו’) – והשילוב הפשוט בין שניהם הוא בכלל כיף. […]
These look so pretty! Great DIY JOB
