How can I decorate a glass jar?

Hello Cathy,

What are you intending to make as I am not sure what you mean?

Tie colorful ribbons around the top of the jar.

Hello. Are you asking how to decorate a mason jar? Glass painting might be an option.

I painted 36 glass mason jars with Folk art multipurpose.

This paint is rated for glass needs to be baked on.

Plaid has a whole page on glass paint products I would look there or call their support line. They are very educational and helpful

In my case I painted a white background first then the blue flower on top. It’s have a nice clean background ( rear view) as well as support the flower true color and prevent streaky look. I painted in single color waves —painting one single color at a time which allowed the paint to dry and cure -this technique work very well for me

You could paint it shabby chick like lite pink and flowers on the lid.you could paint the inside diffrent shades of one color so it fades.

Hi Cathy - This Hero Jar is made with Mod Podge and a Mason Jar, and can be used for Memorial Day, the 4th of July, a service member’s return from deployment, military retirement party, or any other patriotic occasion. Or use the inspiration for another occasion! Hope this helps. Hugs, Holly
