Where can I buy the materials to create this centerpiece?
TikTok user @yetsika_homedecor shared a video tutorial showing exactly how to assemble this DIY centerpiece. As you can see, this project is for super beginners. Let's see where you can buy each of the materials you need. Dollar Tree sells a variety of glass bowls like the one shown at the beginning of the video. Clear glass storage bowls with plastic lids can be purchased on the store's website for just $1.25. This may be the best option since it comes with a plastic lid. You can cut out the edge of this lid and use it as the gold accent piece shown in the video.
Dollar Tree also sells wine glasses that can be used for this DIY. You can purchase several clear glass martini glasses from our website for just $1.25 each. Amazon sells a variety of small gold knobs similar to the ones featured in the video. This website's 2-pack of gold kitchen cabinet knobs is only $8.99, so it's perfect if you're looking to keep things affordable. Amazon is also a great place to get metallic gold spray paint to coat the edges of the container, as shown in the video. For example, Rust-Oleum 340647 Specialty Metallic Spray ($6.83). If you don't already own a hot glue gun, you might be interested in Amazon's AdTech High Temp Combo Kit Mini Hot Glue Gun (price: $6.64).
