Easy Spring Centerpiece - Pottery Barn Inspired Decor

If you’re on the hunt for spring decor on a budget, look no further! Would you believe that this DIY only cost me $14? This simple project was inspired by a $149 Pottery Barn Color Block Vase. I don’t know about you, but I’d much rather try to recreate the look then pay that much for a vase!

It’s such a classic look. You really could use this centerpiece all year long, just switch out the florals for the seasons. You could also add water to make it look more realistic, or even use fresh flowers. I used faux florals so it would look fuller, because the mouth of this glass jar is wide. They have a few smaller sizes, too.

This really is a simple project! All you need is a little painter’s tape to create the color block line. Then paint with whatever color you want. I painted two even coats of paint (using a hair dryer in between coats because I’m impatient). With the second coat wet, I peeled the tape off to reveal the color block.

Watch the video below to see the project in action! Materials are linked below; everything can be found at Walmart.

The best part about a DIY like this is you can switch it up whenever you want! You can paint it a different color for the next season or add texture to it to make it look like old pottery. I love the look that Natalie gets using her texture and paint method in her blog post: How to Make Containers Look Old.

The options are endless! This past fall I updated this same glass jar to look like a McGee and Co dupe. You can read about it on my blog post: Textured Paint Centerpiece DIY.

I hope you feel inspired to get creative with your spring decor! Comment below and let me know what you think? Is this something you’d like to try?

Happy Spring DIYing,
