Do you enjoy glitter and twinkle lights like me? Want a cool way to decorate your room? Or how about a DIY present for a friend that is thoughtful but not too expensive? Here is an idea for you! Make these cool glitter glow jars that are super calming and beautiful!
What you'll need:
A mason jar (any size)
Glitter (as many colors as you'd like, I'd recommend at least 2 options)
Glue (good ol' Elmer's glue will do just fine!)
A paint brush (one you don't mind tossing after you finish the project)
A small tea light or string lights (make them battery operated!)
Step 1
Unscrew your mason jar and paint a light coat of glue on the insides of your jar with your paint brush. It doesn't have to be perfect but remember, anywhere you put glue, the glitter will stick!
Step 2
Take your first color of glitter and pour some in your mason jar. Screw the lid back on and shake the jar well. You'll see the glitter start to spread and cover the walls of the jar.
Step 3
Unscrew the lid and pour your second color of glitter inside. Repeat Step 2 and shake the glitter around the jar, making sure to slide the glitter to spots that are missing some. You can continue this process if you want to use multiple glitter colors.
Step 4
Let the jar dry for a few hours. Once the insides of the jar are dry, you can place your tea light inside. If you use string lights, you can tape the battery pack to the top of the mason jar lid to secure it.
You now have a personalized, pretty glitter glow jar! Enjoy!
