You have seen the invitations I made for Jenna's shower. These glitter mason jars are what I used for centerpieces at the shower! And they were so easy to make!
Come Visit my new site! I have updated tutorials and you can shop my items!
The day I made them, I set everything out so that when my son went down for his nap I would be able to get them done. Well they literally only took me 10 minutes to make, so then I had 2 hours til he woke up to have some me time!
All you need is mason jars, pledge floor care, and glitter.
Pour some floor care in the mason jar and swirl it around getting every part of the jar. Then dump the extra into a bowl. Do the same with your glitter. Then I would just dump what was in the bowl into the next jar. You can see why I laid out a towel AND paper towels. I tend to make a mess and this project was no exception :)
Let them dry. And you are done. Easy Peasy!
I used these as decoration at my little sister's bridal shower. Click here to see the entire post about her Bridal Shower.
I found this tutorial via Pinterest.

DeleteOut of curiosity, how long does it take the pledge and glitter to dry completely? Can I fill a completed jar with water?
DeleteI just let mine sit out over night and they were dry. I didn't try filling them with water but I am fairly sure it would wash the glitter away :(
DeleteHow fun and sparkly!
ReplyDeleteYes! Thank you for always leaving comments. i know that must take a lot of time. I want you to know it doesn't go unnoticed or unappreciated. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLoved these! Featuring you on Handmade Tuesdays today.
ReplyDeleteI love this!! May I ask though, why the pledge? Just curious but what a cute idea
ReplyDeleteAWESOME!! :)

These are cute. Sometimes I wonder if things turn out as well when you try them as they do on Pinterest. Would be a cute centerpiece for my sister's baby shower!

It makes it look like a jar full of glitter. A great way to get that effect with less glitter. Cool!
ReplyDeleteLiz
Oh wow, what a fun and simple idea! Who doesn't love upcycling old jars? Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteCan you put flowers in these?
ReplyDeleteI just put fake flowers in it. I think that if you put water in it would slowly wash the glitter off. But maybe you could find a cup that would fit inside the jar and fill it with water.
DeleteLove it,but can you burn tealight candles in it.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea! I plan to use this idea for my daughter's upcoming baby shower in June.
