I found a similar idea online not too long ago and decided with Halloween right around the corner that it was time to clear out some of these jars I've been saving from my cabinet. Not to mention using up some of this paint...
All you need for this project is paint, brushes and a few jars or vases.
Everything was done by freehand so this won't be much of a tutorial. All you do is paint your image on the jar. So here are all the pictures :)
This is the only one I drew in Sharpie before painting. I didn't do it with the others because you can see the darker outline when looking at the back of it. But that happened because my paint was an "Iron" color, not straight black.
Each one takes 3-4 coats to fully cover. I held them up to the light and if there was even a lightly lit spot it got recovered. I am for perfection :)
Step one and step two of my favorite jar! At this point all that was left to do was draw the lines on the windows. I was in no way prepared to paint fine lines on the windows so I cheated and used a black sharpie... shhh. Don't tell anyone.
Kind of a crappy picture of the last jar. My crow!
My messy work area...
And this is the finished project. I still think I'm going back and adding a moon behind the witch. I think she's missing something. When I add it I'll add the picture to the post so check back soon!
