Making color frosted mason jars!

It is pretty easy. I read about it somewhere online, but can't remember where in order to credit them.

This is all you need to get started:

- A mason jar (mine happens to be a preggo spaghetti sauce jar)
- Food Dye
- Elmers Glue - clear drying (I didn't have it, so I used Mod Podge)
- A cup to mix the glue and dye
- A sponge brush

First you make sure your mason jar is clean and dry. Then you mix whatever color you want into some glue. Doesn't really matter how much. I put enough glue to cover the bottom of the cup, and then added two drops of blue dye and one drop of green and made a pretty teal/aqua color.

Then you just paint the jar! I used up and down stokes in order to not have too many odd streaks.

Don't fret. There WILL be streaks. I allowed it to dry and then applied a second coat in order to cover any streaks.

As it dries it looks more and more frosted, as opposed to painted. Here is the final product:

I think that maybe if I had done 1 more coat it would look better. I can still see some streaks. Or maybe elmers glue would have looked better than the mod podge.  Who knows. Ya live and ya learn!
