Thrifty Tips for November 29, 2012

CRAFTY GIFT

I am on the hunt for a good gift to make a guy...as of yet, nothing is screaming out to me.  But I loved making these epsom salt bottles and votive holders.  They are super easy too!




What you need:




Glass jars and bottles  (I used an old relish jar, two Snapple bottles and a Christmas tree candy jar that I got for cheap at Walmart.  I save up jars all the time, because you never know what you can use them for. Mason jars would work well for this too.
Modge Podge
Epsom salts
Food coloring (not necessary but it can make a nice effect)
Paint brush
Spray Gloss

1-  Take clean jar and paint on a thick coat of Modge Podge (not so thick that it is drippy).






2- Pour epsom salts onto a plate or wax paper and roll Modge Podge coated glass into the salts or pour salts over the jar.




2A- If you want you can add food coloring to the salts to make a sea glass effect.  Just add a few drops and stir.









3 - Set coated glass to dry for a few hours. Follow drying with spraying the coated glass with spray gloss (I used Krylon).  Spray and let rest for 20 minutes before respraying 3 to 4 times.




4 - Put votive candle or LED votive inside for a pretty effect.
