Pumpkin Jars


The other day the kiddos were begging to do a craft, so I looked in my craft cupboard and found the supplies to make these pumpkins.

You need:

clean empty baby food jars
mod podge
orange tissue paper
a permanent marker
green ribbon
paint brush
scissors

We started by cutting up the tissue paper into small squares. Then we used our Mod Podge to glue the orange squares all over the outside of the jar. My three year old enjoyed doing this, there is no perfect way to this step. Just cover the jar. After it is all dry we used the permanent markers to draw faces on our pumpkins and finished it off with a green ribbon on the top. If you have a votive candle you can put it inside the jar to illuminate it.
