Recycled Jar Candle Holder

  


Project designed by
Ellen Allan

Materials List:
 Empty mayonnaise jar
Glass etching cream
Craft brush
Masquepen w/Super Nib
Seed beads
3 - 5 Fancy large beads
Krylon Stained Glass spray paint
1-1/2 yards 28 gauge non-tarnish wire

  

 

            

Clean and dry the empty jar.  Use the Supernib attachment on the Masquepen to make a design all over the jar. Little squiggles can be nice, as well as shapes like stars and hearts. You can also write sayings or words.  Apply a thick layer of etching cream. Wait five minutes and then wash off.

Spray the inside of the jar lightly with a few coats of the stained glass paint. Be sure to work outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.  String 36 inches of seed beads onto the wire. Wrap the beaded wire around the top of the jar in between the grooves where the lid would go.  Wrap the ends of the wire together and finish by putting big beads on the ends.
