DIY pretty storage containers

Here's a simple yet cute idea for your stockings and tights from www.onekingslane.com
Next time you get a run in your stockings, don't throw them away turn them into these adorable looking vases and containers.


All you need are your new or old stockings / tights, some double sided tape, some scissors and some glass vases or jars.


> Cut your stockings / tights up the top and bottom of each leg to create two tubes.
> Stick your double sided tape around the rim of your glass.
> Slide your stocking tube carefully over your glass and stick to your tape.
> Trim excess stocking at trim of glass.
> Tuck excess stocking at bottom of the glass underneath glass & secure with extra tape.

So simple yet so effective. With all the different tights and stockings available at the moment your sure to be able to make some great looking vases and containers. I can't wait to make some for myself.
