If you're like me, it's tough to toss jars when you're creative because you know they will come in handy for something! TWO YEARS AGO I wrote an article for Hamptons Magazine and thought I'd share with you the project I made especially for them.
YOU'LL NEED:
Jars in different sizes
Yarn
Masking tape
White Krylon spray paint
Fabric cut on the bias 1 1/2" wide by 10" per jar
Tea lights
HERE'S HOW:
1. After your jars are sparkly clean, tightly wrap them with yarn in a crisscross pattern and tape the ends on the underside or the inside so they stay in place. Don't place the tape on the outside of the jar where you will be painting.
2. Cover an area in newspaper and give the jars 3 light coats of white Krylon spray paint (waiting 5-10 minutes in between coats) and let dry.
3. Remove the yarn and wrap the tops with the bias fabric securing them with a knot. You could also use ribbon for the tops, it's up to you.
4. Add your tea lights and set your table.
