"Pin"spiration - Painted Vase

My "Pin"spirations are things I have found on or through Pinterest that inspired me to try something new, whether it's a new craft, a new project or a new recipe.

Several weeks ago, I came across a painted lamp base on BHG. I didn't have a lamp to try the technique on, but last week I found a lime green vase for $2.42 (minus a 25% discount making it only $1.82) and thought it a likely "victim" for the project. I've really been drawn to lime green lately...

Using a water-resistant acrylic paint pen, I began to doodle on the vase.

Mr. LH asked why I would want to ruin a perfectly nice vase. He thought I was going to draw smiley faces all over it or something but was quite pleased with the results.
