How may I create some easy crafts using jars?
+2
I have a crate of jars. I would like to make some crafts with them. I am not really all that crafty. Do you have any suggestions? As for painting them, I would not be all that good. Thank you!

Leiann...You can layer ingredients for cookies, brownies, cakes, etc. and give as gifts...You can paint, cover with mod podge & napkins or tissue paper..or wrap cording around and add ribbon...so much. My daughter gathered small items like buttons, pins, tacks, paperclips, rubber bands, etc. put in jars and added bird seed, placed a list of the items on it using cord, ribbon and it's a game. She gave to all her teachers in elementary school and we have one in our main bathroom that people play with all the time looking for the items. Good luck!

You could use PVA glue and some string or wool, to make decorative vases.
Cover with PVA, then stick on the wool or string starting at the bottom and work upwards.
You could also use glass paints to paint them.
Decopatch with decopatch paper and use as jars to hold small candles, or battery lights.
