In the last DIY, I used Pickle Jars to create beautiful brown paper bag stamped containers.
Since this is a trash to treasure, I didn’t want to throw away anything!
For my next project, the pickle jar lids were the perfect thing to create DIY Snowflake Ornaments.
First, I used my cordless drill to put 2 holes an inch or so apart into the edge of the lid.
Next, I used Fusion Mineral Paint in the color Coal Black and a STAALMEESTER Painted Sash Brush to paint the lids.
I painted both the front and the back of the lid.
Before I moved on to the next steps, I let the painted lids completely dry.
Once the lids were dry, I used clear Gorilla Glue to adhere the resin snowflake to the painted lid.
I placed the resin snowflake directly in the middle of the lid.
Using a STAALMEESTER Pointed Sash Brush I coated the lid and the resin snowflake in Dixie Belle White Wax.
Then I used a dry paper towel to wipe off the wax from the lid.
The paper towel didn't remove the wax as effectively as I had hoped.
I decided to use a dry brush to brush off some of the excess wax from the lid.
Lastly, I threaded jute twine through the two holes so that I could hang the ornaments onto my tree!
