Pressed flower jars

Last weekend when Alaina and Ruby came over, we decorated jars with pressed flowers.  We used ours as candle holders, but depending on the shape of the jar, you could use them to store things in, as a vase, or whatever else you think of.
To make these you need clean jars, Mod podge, pressed flowers, or even stickers and wide paint brushes.  We used the cheap, foam type.

Here's the pressed flowers.  I got them on Amazon for a surprisingly low cost.

You brush Mod Podge on a small section of the glass, then press flowers down where you want them.

Then you move to the next section, and do it again.  The Mod Podge dries pretty quickly so you can only do a small area at a time.

Here's one with all the flower on it.   Once you've got all your flowers placed, you brush another layer of Mod Podge over the whole thing to seal it.

Here's Alaina's, mine and Ruby's all done and drying.

When they were dry, we tied twine around the top and then put battery operated candles in them.  The Mod Podge dries clear but gives the glass a wavy appearance.

The girls, with the finished product!
