Tea Light Jars~ Witch and Ghosts~BOO!
hi guys AN EARLY HALLOWEEN CRAFT to get you EXCITED FOR HALLOWEEN. (IS IT TO EARLY? NAH!!!!!) I made these last year with my sister!
I got a GIANT jar at Walmart, it was a pickle jar in the bulk section, cleaned out and scrubbed. Then while at the craft store I saw a cute un-finished witch hat at “Roberts Crafts” on clearance. THEN BOOM the idea… SO JOIN ME AND LETS TAKE A LOOK AT THE DIY STEPS……
start with~ wItcH hat, green tissue paper, jar, mod podge, and sponge applicator…. BEFORE~ un-finished
Take and cute tissue paper to size, then mod podged the strips on the OUTSIDE OF GLASS. Lay your strips of tissue paper over the mod podge and then add more mod podge over the tissue paper. Next paint the hat with Acrylic paint (i used a charcoal color) then tear pieces of scrap paper in a Halloween theme, OF Course’!

Oh goodie…I am so ready for some Halloween ideas since it takes me awhile to get things started. Heck August will be over in a snap and then we will start bringing out the fall stuff in Septemeber so keep posting something like this at least once a week if you don’t mind…I am so ready for it to hurry up. We are having a big Halloween Bash this year!
Cute jars and plan on making some like these…saw some last year so I bought the tissue paper at the end of the season and glad you reminded me to start saving jars.
