Empty Jar to Altered Jar

This weeks crafty make is an Altered Jar, quick and easy to create after your paint has dried. This is simply an old candle jar, cleaned and dried. You pop acrylic paint into the jar in whatever colour you choose and swirl it around until every inch of the jar is covered, take the time to let the excess drip out before setting it down and leaving to dry , at least for 24 hours. o the same with the lid if its glass. When dried you can start to add whatever you desire in your chosen theme. Here i have used some Graphic 45 papers and tissue paper, added embellishments. I added some soft sparkle to the butterflies and I think the result is lovely. I have popped it on my dressing table with cotton wool balls inside, you dont have to put anything inside , it could be purely for decoration. HAPPY CRAFTING.
