About This Project

Light up your Halloween night with some spooky glass jar luminaries. Copy one of our fun characters, or create some of your own. These make a great Halloween-themed decor or gift that kids can create all on their own using recycled jars and inexpensive supplies. We used watered-down glue to make our luminaries, but Mod Podge would also be a great choice for attaching the tissue paper to the jars.
