Welcome to PAGE TWO of How To Make A Festive Candy Cane Mason Jar Vase tutorial.
Once you’ve made your candy cane mason jar, you can also use it for other things besides just a vase for flowers. You can use it to fill with holiday candies, or even to use as a luminary by placing a votive candle inside which would look very beautiful.
Below you will find the materials list as well as the tutorial instructions with image to help you make yours very easily.
What you will need:
- a red mason jar
- mod podge
- blue painter’s tape
- white paint
- a small paint brush
- twine and jingle bells
Instructions:
Start with a red mason jar. Place painter’s tape starting from the bottom of the jar to the top at a diagonal. Repeat this process approximately every two inches to create your “stripes.”
Once the tape is securely in place, paint a layer of mod podge onto any exposed areas on the outside of the jar—the mod podge ensures the white paint looks as white as possible when finished. When the mod podge has dried, paint a layer of white paint over it. Allow to dry and paint a 2nd coat of white.
After the paint has dried, remove the tape and voilà! You have a lovely candy cane-inspired creation. Using twine, we strung silver and red jingle bells around the top for a cute embellishment.
