In today’s tutorial, we’ll show you how to turn a glass jar that has already served its purpose into a beautiful looking Jack o’lantern. There are many things you can do with this jar – you can turn it into a lantern by putting LED candles in it, use it as a holder for paper straws, snacks, or even flowers.
This project can be enjoyed by children or adults, it is a fun project for all ages.
What you need:
Spread out some newspaper before you begin.
In a well-ventilated area, spray paint the glass jar orange and the rim of the glass jar lid blue and let dry for several hours or overnight.
If you have kids doing this project, have them paint the jars and lids with craft paint. You can paint the inside or outside of the jar. You may need to apply several coats of paint, depending on the type of paint.
Let the paint dry. Once dry, screw the green lid ring onto the orange Mason jar.
Using a black marker, draw a jack-o-lantern face on the front of an orange mason jar.
Use a brush and black paint to fill in the face you drew and let it dry.
Done! You have made a pumpkin in a glass jar.
