Step 1: Paint The Outside Of The Jar

I started by giving my jar a couple of coats of paint, using Glamour Dust from DecoArt in silver. I like the jar to be a gift even after the mix is gone. This gives you a glittery container for your gift and an extra special home decor gift for your recipient as well.
