St. Patrick's Day Treat Jar

St. Patrick's Day Treat Jar

Posted by DecoArt on Mar 5th 2014

I think it is fun to do creative little gifts for holidays-even for the smaller ones like St. Patrick's Day. I mean, who wouldn't want a jar full of candy any day of the week, but color it green and make it all cute and you've got something great. I created this very easy St. Patrick's Day jar with a cute tag that you can give to a good friend to celebrate.

Items Needed:

  • Mason Jar
  • Shamrock Stencil
  • Gold Wrapped Candy
  • Gold Ribbon

Instructions:

I cut out a shamrock out of peel and stick vinyl and stuck it on my mason jar.

Then I painted a coat of the chalky finish paint over the whole jar. I let that dry and then gave it a second coat.

Then I peeled the shamrock off and that left a little shamrock shaped window. Fill that jar with candy, add some gold ribbon at the top and you've got something cute!

I have a free printable tag available for you today over at Crazy Little Projects too if you want to add that! It says "A Friend is a Treasure More Precious Than Gold." Come grab the tag and make up this cute St. Patrick's day gift!
