Decorative Glass Jars
Arts & Crafts
Want to craft some really impressive decorative glass jars? You will love the attractive look of these glass jars designed with sea shells and sand. Add rhinestones, beads, coral and other accessories and really crank up the beauty
These sea shell arts and crafts jars will make a great addition to your home decor. Make several and give them as beautiful homemade gifts to your family and friends. Start with the guide for the decorative glass jars with a vertical sea shell design, then work your way through the other projects.
Use them as Keepsake jars. Place your collection of shells, marbles, or any other items you wish in the jars. I even use one to keep matches in.
They can also be used as candle lanterns, with the seashells and sand softening the candle fires glow. With the small jars use tealights, scented or unscented.
The larger jars will hold votive candles. Be sure the votives are inside of a glass votive holder, so they do not melt inside your jar and create a mess.
Just remove the lid and set it aside. Place the tealight or votive inside the jar. Use a candle lighter or long match to light the candle. Enjoy the beauty of the jars in this new way.
When you are done, carefully blow out the candle. Wait for the smoke to clear. Replace the lid.
Craft jars by re-cycling the jars from candles you may have used up. Handcraft the candle jars into glass jars that will add beauty to your home, instead of sending the empty candle jars to the landfill.
