Candle Jars For Summer…

We have been reading and crafting up a storm this Summer! It has been H-O-T, and the heat and humidity seems to be bothering little M’s heart a bit, so when it gets very hot we have been staying inside.

In one of our storybooks, some kids decorate a candle jar, and little M asked what that was…I had no real idea, but this is what we came up with…

We used little tissue squares and mod podge to decorate some glass candle jars I had already…

Baby J loved this, and took it very seriously…

He also enjoyed making a mess. He enjoys that a lot.

We let them dry…

And the very minute they were dry, the kids were anxious to get candles in them…

I think they turned out pretty cute, and my kiddos are pretty proud that this is our table decoration.

    What a cute crafting idea! We need to do some more crafts around here- I might have to borrow this idea!! 🙂

    I remember doing this with my big girls when they were M and J age. They used the same idea to make centerpieces for our sweetheart banquet in February! Of course theirs were slightly more sophisticated than the ones they made in kindergarten:)
