A DIY guru has taken the internet by storm after transforming a cleaning product into a stunning vase.

In a short clip on TikTok, the craft account, White and wood (@white.and.wood), proved home decor fans don’t always need to spend thousands on one-off designer pieces – just a little creativity and you can save yourself hundreds of pounds.

The whizz, whose genius and stunning crafts have been liked over 644,000 times on TikTok, had found a beautiful and trendy home piece online.

But while the white ceramic vase retails for a relatively low price – €29.99 (£25) at the Swedish multinational giant, H&M – the expert had come up with a genius way to achieve the same look but six times cheaper.

Instead of splurging on a mainstream vase, White and wood used an empty bottle of Ariel washing liquid detergent and set off to transform it into a dazzling home decor piece.

Mixing equal parts of baking powder with white acrylic paint, the guru then simply applied the secret concoction onto the bottle with a sponge.

Doing so instead of grabbing a brush will create extra texture – a result that can also be achieved by using mixed media, creative viewers pointed out.

Once the white mixture had dried up, the savvy whizz demonstrated the final result – the colourful plastic Ariel bottle had been revamped into a chic, modern vase holding three sticks of dried pampas grass.

The crafty video has been liked by more than 315,000 viewers, many of whom took it to comments to share their thoughts, branding White and wood ”Picasso”.

”Plus when it falls it won’t break…good job,” someone pointed out, whilst a second chuckled: ”wow now you can sell it for 29.90.”

Someone appeared to be inspired and wrote: ”okeyy now i will starting collecting my liquid detergent bottle [sic].”

”This is NEXT LEVEL,” a fan described the project, whilst another fan thought: ”Recycling at it’s best!”

”Not me thinking you actually ordered the vase and it came as a soap bottle,” a confused TikTok user confessed.

”should try sanding out the hard edges if possible i think it’ll elevate it further [sic],” thought another viewer.

The whizz has gained popularity on social media with her creative thinking and vision, finding genius ways to use less plastic and reusing existing products to give them a second life.

In one such video, White and wood grabbed a leftover plastic pizza packaging – with the help of white clay and patience, she transformed it into a bohemian home decor shelf piece.
