Mason jar candle holders
Mason jar crafts are the craft that everyone is doing, this is an inexpensive gift or year round decoration in your house or outside.
Materials:
1- If you don't already have them, you need to buy mason jars (new or used will work)
2- Spray paint in any opaque color (black is my favorite)
3- Stickers or blue painters tape.
4- Scissors
5- Tea light candles
Instructions:
Step 1: Wash and dry mason jars making sure that they are completely dry.
Step 2: Take the stickers and stick them to the jar in the patter you would like, or if you have take cut into the desired shape and again stick to the mason jar.
Step 3: After you have the desired pattern on the mason jar, take outside and spray the entire jar evenly making sure you don't have any empty space. (make sure to not get paint in the inside of the jar.
Step 4: Let dry completely
Step 5:After the mason jar is dry, begin to remove all of the tape/stickers form the jar.
Step 6: Place tea light candle inside the mason jar and light after hand is removed.
