Forest scene in a jar

Hello friends
We are back with a project- this time, it is a recycled creation. Those of you, who know us, might know that we love making recycled crafts.

There was a contest for World Environment Day on Instagram, by Itsy Bitsy, an Indian craft store. It inspired us to make a recycled creation. What we love about this creation is that it is functional!!

We had a old Peanut butter jar (plastic) with us, which we use to store our washi tapes. We thought to give it a crafty makeover.

Ain't it cute?

Here is the tutorial, in case, anyone of you is interested in making a similar one for yourself.

Materials required:
Old plastic jar
White cardstock
Coloring medium of choice
Itsy bitsy Stamp

Scissors

Method:
First remove the outer cover of the jar by soaking in in soapy water for an hour. Scrub it and remove the cover. Let it dry.
Stamp image of your choice and color, fussy cut it.
Cut it to the size enough to cover the jar.
Using grass stencil and ink pad, make grass on a piece of white cardstock.



Now make trees and create scene as you like.
Paste the fussy cut images on the background and stick it on the jar.
Ta da, makeover of jar is ready. Flaunt it by by keeping it on your craft desk.
