Hidden In France: Painted glass jars

June 23, 2011

Painted glass jars

A DIY so simple even I could not mess it up. A little paint is pastel hues, a few glass jars found in your local landfill, and five semesters of intensive Finnish lessons is all you'll need.

I'm so trying this!

this is amazing!
I want to buy your book, I´ve just finished "Missing mom" of Joyce Carol Oates and I feel a little sad. I would like to read it on summer holidays, but maybe it will arrive late... I will try :)

Those minty colors are just so fab! I have been recycling plastic containers (pickles, gelato, etc) with screw tops by painting them with acrylic. It never occurred to me to do glass. Thanks, C!

Well bless our friend Vicki Archer for sending me your way today. Now I"m hooked on your blog as well. Hmmm, that means yet another Paris blog and another book about Paris to feed my out of control addiction.

Anyway, this crafty idea is marvelous and I'll do it but wonder about the paint. Semi gloss work?
