Hello Everyone! I’m Caley from HowDoesShe? We are all about gathering ideas together to become the best mothers, wives, neighbors, and women that we want to be.
Today I am sharing my most recent creation I made in preparation for HALLOWEEN! I’m not really one for creepy crawlers, scary eyeballs, or spooky decorations for my home, but I do love to have an excuse to change my decor and dress up like someone else for a day. 😉 This year I’ve made some glowing Halloween jars that are perfect way to add a little ambiance to your evenings.
Here is what you need:
a jar with a flat spot {I saved a spaghetti jar}, a candle, some rice, some fodder paper, and these
{download HERE}
Print these Halloween wrappers on fodder paper {fodder is the thin paper that you can see through – although, the thicker version is better on your printer. I like to use the ones you find in a notebook instead of a roll.}. 😉
Cut them out and use double sided tape to apply it to the jar, or feel free to modge podge it…I just had a feeling I might be switching out the banner for different holidays.
Add some rice and a battery operated candle {or a real candle, but those are hard to light in a skinny jar}…
…and you’re all done!
I have loved having it on my entertainment center with the pretend light flickering in the evenings. I also plan to make a few more and place one on each stair going to my front door for when those little ghost, goblins, princesses, and parents come trick-0r-treating at my door. They would be fun to cluster amongst some pumpkins or jack-o-lanterns as well!
Can’t beat an inexpensive, easy DIY, holiday decor project!
