Canning Jar ReDo!

This week I did a Ball Jar vase, I've seen so many projects with these, It was way past due to get in on it.
Okay so the items you will need are;

• Canning Jar
• Spray Paint
• Garden twine
• Sanding sponge



 

 

1. First off you are going to paint the Jar. I highly suggest just putting a disposable glove on and just hold the jar from the inside.
2. Once it's all dry, And I mean REALLY dry your going to take your sanding sponge, or paper whatever you're sanding with, And run it over the Ball name to make it stand out.
3. Wrap the garden twine around the top and finish out with a bow!

Perfect for your centerpiece or Anything you can imagine!

Enjoy

Repurposed Light Bulb Vases

Love these Bulb vases?

We do too! the best part is you probably already have everything to whip a couple up.

You Will Need.

• An old burnt out bulb.
• A Pair of Needle nose pliers.
• Hot Glue Gun
• Some Garden twine.

1. See that gold disk flap? Take it from an edge and get it off of there. 

 

• Now you will be left with this black glass like materiel. Turn your Pliers on their side and give this black piece a couple good whacks!

• Now once you've got the black backing out you will have to pull the guts out of the middle with your pliers. BE VERY CAREFUL! 

• Now for the real fun, Hot glue one end of the twine, over the top for your handle. glue down the other side of the handle. Now you can start dotting and applying the twine to the metal on the bulb.

                                  

                                                  Ta-Da

Additionally you can glue it down on top of a napkin ring, coupler, The ideas are endless!

 



Paracord Keychain DIY

This last couple weeks I've become obsessed with paracord. Small but impossibly strong rope, You can do almost anything with this rope! Dog collars, Leashes, Belts, Bracelets and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
I'm going to show you how to make a simple keychain out of paracord.
First we're going to cut the desired paracord to length.
Your length needs to be at least 3 times longer than the finished project length is. Once your paracord is cut to size were going to loop it into the split ring.



Your now going to take the black strand and place it over the three others, And the white cord underneath the other three strands.

Pull the white cord through over the Black cord, And the same with the black cord.

Pull both cords tight, The tighter the better.

.Keep crossing the cords just like image 3 until you've finished the length of your project

Once your at the end cut off any exsess there may be.

Carefully take a lighter and melt the ends to seal the keychain.

Ta-Da. Oh and for you beginners beware the paracord blisters!
