Pinterest Inspired Dollar Store DIY

I love doing crafts and Pinterest is the perfect place to get craft ideas! I was inspired to make this when I saw a picture on Pinterest of mason jars that were made into glittery candle holders. I live in an apartment that doesn't allow candles so I figured I can use this as a cute pencil holder. Of course living on a college budget I skipped the mason jars and decided to do an all dollar store DIY.

This is what inspired me

Supplies:
Glue
Glass Jar
Glitter
Paint Brushes
Tape (I didn't realize I was going to need these until after I started)

Also, when you go pick out your glass jar try and find some in fun shapes. I went for this rounded one because I thought it would make it look more interesting than just a regular cylinder shape.

The first thing your going to do is put a piece of tape around the glass jar to insure that you will get a strait line. You can also skip the tape step and try to create your own design

After start painting the glue on the glass jar. I decided to do both the inside and outside of the jar to get a better look.

Once you have some of it painted with glue, pour glitter on the spots before the glue dries. I would recommend doing this over an empty shoe box so you can keep all the glitter contained.

Keep repeating this process until you are satisfied with the outcome!

I hope you guys enjoyed this DIY!
