I am sure you have plenty glass jars in your house that you don't know what to do with them
Don't throw them out, decorate them, here's how to do it using decoupage technique
what you will need:
- a glass jar
- napkin with design you like
- acrylic paints
- adhesive for napkins
- clear gloss varnish
- scissors
- paint brushes
Paint the glass jar with acrylic paint, put at least two layers
While you waiting for the paint to dry , cut out the shapes you are going to use from the napkin.
The napkin usually has three layers, keep only one with the design
Glue your design to glass jar, once it's dry, put gloss varnish on it, wait until it dries and put another layer of varnish.
Here's a photo of another jar that I decoupaged as well. They look really pretty in my kitchen
I am linking my project with these craft parties:

How clever! I like this idea because it takes less steps than what I normally do.
Came by to link up to Sat flowers, hope you are posting it this week. Happy Mother's Day too!
So beautiful. I can think of a dozen glass things I could do this with. I tend to go overboard when I find an idea I like. :-)
