Small glass jars striped with washi tape and glitter like a candy cane. Light one with a tea light for a festive glow.
What You’ll Need
- Small glass jar such as a salsa jar or Mason jar
- Washi tape in two widths or masking tape
- Mod Podge
- Glitter in red green, and silver
- Craft tool: utility knife
Equipment
- mason jars

Directions
- Wash the glass jar well and peel off any labels.
- Stick strips of tape around the jar, alternating thin and thick, with each one slanting slightly downward on a diagonal.
- Pour some silver glitter onto your work surface.
- Work in small sections and brush Mod Podge over the areas of the jar not covered by tape.
- While the glue is still wet, roll each glued section in the silver glitter. Do the same all the way around the jar, then leave it to dry.
- Carefully peel off just the thicker strips of tape. Sweep away any stray silver glitter.
- Pour green glitter onto a clean work surface.
- With a small brush, spread Mod Podge over the bare glass, one small section at a time.
- Roll each glued section in the green glitter. Continue around the whole jar, then leave it to dry.
- Do steps 7 through 9 again with red glitter.
Notes
Use an LED tea light inside; glitter is not for toddlers.
