    i have spray painted my Starbucks coffee bottles with Sea Glass paint, wrapped them with lace and burlap and a matching colored artificial flower. I banded 3 of them together and use it as a vase.

    I've done this with outdoor glass globes...but it also works with tall narrow jars & tweens & teens love them! Make or purchase [Ben Franklin Stores] small unfinished wood rounds; sand the rough areas smooth; paint or stain [& seal the stain if it doesn't have a seal in the mix] as desired; glue 4 or 5 small round felt tabs onto the bottom of the wood round & set aside...Take your clean jar, turn it upside down on a piece of Styrofoam & cut to fit tightly 'inside' the jar opening. Select a couple small dried branches & trim them to fit inside the jar space; add dried grasses & or dried flowers & cut them to fit inside the jar space [adjust heights to your liking]...Gently push the sticks, dried flowers into the Styrofoam [arranging as desired], gently pull them back out & hot glue them back into the space desired, hot glue the grasses into any place you desire . Hot glue dried moss around the base of the sticks, etc. to cover up the Styrofoam base. On the stick, glue a miniature bird nest & glue a miniature bird in the nest or on the stick. Take a piece of notebook paper & gently form a cone around everything that you have glued onto the Styrofoam...Carefully insert the paper cone with its contents into the jar; then remove the paper cone [the contents will spread back out inside the jar]; carefully glue the Styrofoam into place AS YOU ALSO PUSH the Styrofoam into the opening so it is JUST FLUSH with the glass edge [your jar should be UP-SIDE DOWN at the point] Once glued into place, now hot glue the Styrofoam & glass edge of the jar TO THE CENTER OF your painted/stain & sealed wooden round. Choose a length of decorative lace & hot glue it around the base of the jar to cover the glass edge & Styrofoam not covered by the moss inside the jar. Decorate the 'top' [what was the bottom] of the jar with a bow created by multiply layers of the same lace as what you used at the base. NOW you have a very special home made gift! [NOTE: I've done these with butterflies, dried flowers, miniature toys, etc....HAVE FUN, BE CREATIVE!]
