Pumpkin Jar Craft

What you need

small jar (very cute baby food jar)
tight fitting lid
green cleaning tube
orange acrylic paint
green acrylic paint
optional: black acrylic paint if you want the look of a jack-o-lantern
paint brush
optional: tea candle

If you haven’t already, remove the label (we recommend soaking it in water or using washing soda). Dry the jar.

Once completely dry, paint the jar orange. If you want a matte look, paint the outside of the jar orange, if you want a glossy look, paint the inside of the jar orange. Let dry.

Paint the lid green. Let dry.

Take a green pipe cleaner and wrap it around the neck of the jar. Bend the ends (wrap them around your finger or a pencil). If you want your pumpkin to be shiny, place a tea light candle in it. Screw the lid on tightly. Your pumpkin jar craft is complete.
