Adhesive stencil(s)
Container for mixing
Clean the mason jar with soap and water or rubbing alcohol; let dry.
Add two heaping tablespoons of Mod Podge to a container. Add 8 - 10 drops of food coloring (you can mix colors) plus 1/2 teaspoon water and mix well.
Pour the Mod Podge into the jar and swirl to coat. Place upside down to drain. Allow to dry for 24 hours.
Apply an adhesive stencil to the outside of the jar and smooth down. Apply a small amount of paint to the spouncer and then test on a paper towel.
Sponge the paint onto the adhesive stencil, covering with paint. Once done, remove the stencil and let dry.
Dot glass paint on your mason jar to compliment the design. Let dry completely before using.
- Alternatively to allowing the jar to drain, you can place it in a 200 degree oven and bake until dry (do not leave unattended).
