Recycled Decorative Jar

Learn how to take an old food jar and turn it into a decorative container using little craft supplies.  

You’ll Need

  • An old Jar (Clean)
  • Glue (I used E-6000 for the Jar & Mod Podge for the Lid)
  • Scissors
  • Yarn (I used two different colors)
  • Paper (The video shows paper from used old wrapping paper)

 
Instructions

  1. Start with a clean jar
  2. Wrap the yarn around the jar. Note: You can hold the yarn in place or secure with glue
  3. Secure the end of the yarn with glue then 
    go back to the bottom and secure the bottom rim with glue
  4. Continue with the next color of string and repeat steps 2-3 twice.
  5. Use the lid of the jar to trace a circle on your paper
  6. Cut the circle out
  7. Glue the circle on the lid
  8. Optional Trim: Glue the yarn around the rim of the lid
