You Will Need to
- Mason jar

- e3600 glue (or any glue rated for affixing to glass)
- Ribbon or twine
- Tea light
- Lighter
- Brushes
Instructions:
Step 1. Apply Glue to Mason Jar
Take your E3600 glue and apply in small patches to the surface of the mason jar in a well-ventilated area with your brush.
Apply glue to a small area on the jar, working from the base of the lid downward.
Step 2. Apply Glass to Mason Jar
Add glass elements over the glue. Take your time planning out the design, as some round glass elements may be bigger than others.
Once the area is dry, move on to the next, slowly covering the body of the mason jar. This process took me a few hours, so no rush!
Step 3. Finishing Touches
