It's always fun to have special treats for the holidays. My son and I decided to make a special treat jar for St. Patrick's Day. This was a really simple project.
You'll need:
- Empty Jar with lid... any size
- Green Paint
- Paint Brush
- Craft Glue
- Green Decorations
- Green Treats
1. Take the lid off of the jar and paint it green. You might need a few coats if it has designs or is a dark color.
2. While the lid was drying we decorated the jar. I didn't plan ahead and didn't have stickers or anything, so I got on the computer and printed some shamrock clip art onto vellum. We cut it out and used craft glue to stick them on. You can use anything you want: ribbon, stickers, rickrack... get creative!
Pretty simple. You could also use baby food jars and give them as a little gift to friends!
I'm glad Amy is having you contritute her blog. You both are very creative with your children.
