Ok so I slacked off! Here is to make up for it!

I slacked off in December, I underestimated how much time work and school and christmas season takes out of you! But plans are in the works for a January craft, so stay posted!

In the mean time I will post something that I made this last month that everyone can do on there own if you feel the crafty bug hit you one day.

Homemade Apothecary Jars- these are great because you can change whats in them to coordinate with the holidays or seasons!

I got everything at Hobby Lobby (my new favorite place!) Here is what you need.

3 unfinished wood candle stick bottoms. About $1 each
3 unfinished wood craft circles. $0.50 each
Black craft paint
Candy jars ( I got three different sizes, but thats up to you). Ranged from $2-$4 depending on size.
Glue

Glue the candle sticks to the craft circles and let dry. After they have dried compleatly paint them black, I did two coats and then distressed them with sandpaper when they had dried. Then you need some heavy duty glue to glue the jars to the candle sticks and your done. Im debating about spray painting the jar lids black but because its been to cold outside I have not gotten around to doing so and now I kinda like them silver. I have also seen where someone has covered the tops with twine, so you can make it your own.

And then the best part is filling them! You can see from my picture for christmas I filled mine with fake snow and ball ornaments! I love these they are great! I cant wait to change up the inside of them for valentines day!

Have fun, and if any one has any questions feel free to post them and I will help as I can.
