10 Craft Ideas to do With Vase Coloring Pages
Once those beautiful vase coloring pages are all filled with color, don't let them gather dust! These easy, affordable craft ideas put your artistic creations to delightful use.
1. Pop-Up Flower Card
Cut out your favorite colored vase. Fold a piece of cardstock in half, then make two parallel cuts on the fold and push the cut strip inwards to create a pop-up platform. Glue your vase onto this platform and add drawn or paper flowers to complete a cheerful, dimensional greeting card.
2. DIY Vase-Shaped Mini Gift Box
Carefully cut out a colored vase, leaving a small border. Using a second piece of cardstock or construction paper, trace the vase and cut it out too. Glue three edges of the two vase shapes together, leaving the top open, to create a small pocket. Fill with tiny trinkets or a secret message for a cute, vase-themed gift container.
3. Vase Garden Stakes
Laminate your finished vase coloring pages (or cover with clear packing tape for a similar effect). Cut out the laminated vases and glue each one to the top of a craft stick or popsicle stick. Use these charming stakes to mark pretend plants in a play garden or as whimsical labels for your real potted herbs.
4. Vase Mobile of Masterpieces
Cut out several different colored vases from your pages. Punch a small hole at the top of each vase. Using pipe cleaners or string, attach the vases to a horizontal stick or a paper plate frame. Hang your unique vase mobile to display an array of artistic vase designs twirling in the breeze.
5. 3D Paper Vase Sculpture
Cut out a colored vase, and then cut a second, identical vase from construction paper. Score and fold a strip of construction paper into a long accordion fold. Glue this folded strip between the two vase outlines, attaching it along the side and bottom edges, to create a standing 3D vase. You can even add paper flowers inside.
6. “My Ideal Vase” Journal Cover
Take a plain notebook or a piece of cardstock folded into a simple journal cover. Cut out your most beautifully colored vase and glue it prominently onto the front. Add glitter, ribbon, or stickers around it to create a personalized “My Ideal Vase” themed journal for drawing more vases or writing your thoughts.
7. Vase Silhouette Suncatchers
Cut out the *interior* shape of a colored vase from a page, creating a vase-shaped frame. On a piece of clear contact paper or thin plastic wrap, arrange small pieces of colorful tissue paper within the vase frame. Place another piece of contact paper on top to seal it, then trim around the vase shape for a beautiful, light-catching display.
8. Vase Place Card Holders
Cut out smaller colored vases from your pages. Fold a piece of sturdy cardstock in half to create a stand-up base. Glue the cut-out vase to the front of this folded card, ensuring it stands upright. Write a name on each vase to create decorative place card holders for a party or a special meal.
9. Vase “Fill-Me-Up” Puzzle
Glue a colored vase page onto a piece of sturdy cardboard (like from a cereal box). Once dry, carefully cut the vase into 5-10 unique, interlocking puzzle pieces. Mix them up and challenge friends or family to reassemble your beautiful vase, encouraging shape recognition and problem-solving skills.
10. Vase Pen/Pencil Pot Wrapper
Take an empty, clean tin can (like from soup or vegetables). Cut out a colored vase and measure it to fit around the can; you might need to use multiple vase cut-outs or decorative elements to cover it completely. Glue your vase cut-outs securely around the can to transform it into a unique and decorative holder for pens, pencils, or craft supplies.
