Ombre Glittered St. Patrick's Day Mason Jar Mugs

Mason jars make everything taste better. I could put a kale, Brussels sprout and spinach smoothie into this adorable ombre glittered mug and it would taste like candy. Well ok, maybe it is not that magical - but it is that magical looking. I couldn't let St. Patrick's Day pass without at least one shout out to the shamrock. This ombre glittered mug is great for green beer, Irish coffee or kale smoothies if the mood strikes you.

DIY Dipped Glitter Vase

While I enjoy intricate crafting, it's also really fun to find a simple project you can create in a few minutes.  This dipped glitter vase can be made in about five minutes.  It would make a great wedding centerpiece or just a pretty decoration at home.

To Create This Project You Will Need:

- a glass vase

- Tulip fashion glitter in the color of your choice

- Aleene's Fast Grab Tacky Spray

- Aleene's Spray On Glitter Sealer

To begin, I taped off the vase with paper about 1/3 of the way up.  I headed outside and sprayed the bottom of the vase with Aleene's Fast Grab Tacky Spray.  

I poured the glitter onto the bottom of the vase.

After enough pouring, the glitter starts to accumulate on the paper and you can roll the vase in it as well.  That makes it easier to really get the glitter pushed on tightly.

 Once the glitter is on you can protect it with Aleene's Spray On Glitter Sealer.  

Then simply remove the paper.

 Now you have a one-of-a-kind vase with some extra glam.
