Applying paint and Mod Podge

Begin by mixing paint and Mod Podge. I decided to do this for my jars to give them more of a stained-glass appearance.

I went with brown and orange for my jars.

Adding napkin cut-outs and faux leaves

After cutting out your napkin designs, use Mod Podge to adhere them to your first jar. Make sure to remove the second layer of the napkin before adding each cutout to the jar. Apply Mod Podge to the jar, place the design over the Mod Podge, and then use a paintbrush to apply Mod Podge over the cutouts.

For the next jar, use hot glue to attach the faux leaves to the bottom section of the jar.

Adding twine to the jars

Next, take the twine and add some to each of the jars. Loop the twine around the top of each jar. Once you've decided on the amount you want for each jar, use scissors to cut off the leftover twine and tie it off.
