This painted Santa mason jar is such a cute Christmas gift idea!
It also works as part of your holiday decor and its very easy to make.
Its going to require patience, but I provide all the instructions below.
I carry an extreme amount of guilt about last Christmas.
Because I have good neighbors.
And last year, unexpectedly, several of them showed up with boxes of baked goods or candy gifts.
I didnt expect it, but I probably should have.
I live around some nice, generous people and I feel very lucky!
But dont worry, Im not going to make the same mistake this year.
If youve never painted amason jarfor Christmas .
Its a fun craft and great for gifting, or just displaying with yourholiday decor.
Plus its easy enough for beginners or even children to do!
This PROJECT is completed in four easy steps.
Use multisurface or glass paint on the jar.
it’s possible for you to also use red spray paint.
I dont recommend regular redcraft paintbecause it will be easy to scratch off the glass.
Glass paint looks worse before it looks better.
Use a soft bristled brush anddontpaint the next layer until the layer before it is dry.
Your first layer will be pretty thin.
This is where you need the patience.
Dont glob the paint on; simply brush it on and it will start to flatten out.
Besides brushing, you’re free to also spounce the paint on withthis tool.
It does give a bit of a texture to the paint though.
Also, you wont have brush strokes.
