Last week I wanted to think up a cute gift for my boys teachers. I wanted something that could set on their desk, and make them happy. While going through my pin boards I remembered I seen this pin...
I loved it, but wanted to change it just a little. Here is what I did.
I took two jars and regular craft paint.
Pour your paint into your jar.
Move your jar around until it is completely coated. I just poured paint in little by little until it was covered. I let them dry overnight, and threw in some flowers.
Here they are! I love how they turned out. So bright and cheery. I hope they bring many smiles to the boy's teacher's faces for many years to come. Do you like to make what you pin on Pinterest, or just pin away?
I like to party here.
love them! have done this a few times and i totaly love the results! i love love love the colors you used!
ReplyDeleteI pinned the same project :) I finally found some dimensional acrylic paint that I will use instead of a glue gun because I don't think I can write that quickly!
ReplyDeleteThe colours you used look fantastic - especially the fuschia :)
They turned out adorable! Would love for you to link up at our Friday Block Party at Curb Alert! The link is up all weekend.

I love how bright these turned out, so fun! This might seem like a silly question, but can they be filled with water?
ReplyDeleteHi! I'm not sure if these would be able to hold water or not. What I would do is let the paint dry and "re-paint" with Modge Podge to seal the inside. They should be fine to hold water after that I wold think. Let me know if you decide to try it! Good luck.
DeleteThis is one of the cutest ideas I've ever seen. I have so many mason jars in my basement...going to have to try this for a summer project. Stopping by from I Heart Nap Time linkup. :)
