DIY Glitter Jars



A few weeks ago, we hosted a little graduation party. I was in charge the decorations (super fun job, BTW), and I decided to make some glitter jars. They turned out so great and are super cute, so I thought that I would do a little DIY tutorial for them here on the blog. Let me know what you think!


What you need:


-Mason Jars (or any type of jar, most of ours were actually just jam jars)

-Mod Podge

-Paint Brush

-Glitter


Step one: Make sure that your jars are clean.

Step two: Using your paint brush, paint a layer of Mod Podge inside of the jar, however far up you want the glitter to go. (We did some of ours all the way up, but also left some only halfway glittered for variation)

Step three: Shake glitter into your jars. You may have to hold them at an angle to get all around the sides. Don’t be afraid to put in too much glitter. You can always pour the extra out and use it for your next jar.

Step four: Once you feel like you have sufficiently covered the jar in glitter, let it dry.

Step five (optional): After it has dried, put another coat of Mod Podge on top of the glitter to seal it. I didn’t actually do this with mine, but I feel like it probably would have been a good idea.

Then you’re done! I put some tea light candles in mine, but you can also just leave them as they are.
