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.

Steps

Cut your tissue paper

Gather the tissue paper you want to use. We used white for ghosts, and green and purple for our monster and witch. Green would also make a great Frankenstein, or orange would be fun for a jack-o-lantern themed project. Tear or cut the tissue paper into small squares, no more than one-inch across.
