Step by Step Valentine Vase Drawing Instructions
Step 1 – Draw the Vase Opening
Start by drawing a short horizontal line near the top of your paper. This will be the top opening of the vase.
Step 2 – Add the Side Curves
From each end of the horizontal line, draw smooth curved lines that flow outward and then inward. These will form the elegant sides of the vase.
Step 3 – Complete the Outline
Connect the two curved sides at the bottom with a slightly rounded horizontal line. Now your vase outline is complete!
Step 4 – Add Neck and Middle Lines
Draw two more horizontal lines—one just below the neck and another across the widest part of the vase. These add structure and detail.
Step 5 – Draw a Heart on the Vase
In the center of the vase, draw a heart shape. This adds a lovely Valentine’s Day touch.
Step 6 – Add a Cute Smiling Face
Finish your vase by adding two small dots under the heart for eyes and a little curved smile between them. Your vase is now full of joy and love!
