Halloween is by far my favourite season of the year. I am drawn to all things paranormal and terrifying, so for the entire month of October, my supernatural internal pistons are firing on all cylinders. This season, I wanted to increase the number of DIYs posts that I normally publish. The great thing about today’s project, is that it is really two crafts in one. Each pumpkin jar can serve as its own candy-filled treat, or you can simply remove their lids and place tea lights in their bellies. I personally prefer the latter. So, here is the first craft of the season!

Pumpkin Candy or Candle Holders:

Jam jars
Acrylic paint
Cork board
Foam brushes
Scissors
Crazy glue
Candy or candles

Steps

1. Using a foam brush and orange paint, cover the exterior of the glass jars. Let dry. (If you are making candle holders, skip to step 4.)

2. Next paint the lids green. 

3. Cut the cork into small rectangular pieces. Cover in brown paint.

4. Once the pumpkins are dry, use the black paint to draw faces onto them.

5. Fill with either candy or candles, and put on display for all to see!

They make cute candy-filled gifts.

Or double as candle holders.

See y’all on Monday!
