If you’re at a loss as to what to get your friends and family for Christmas a great option is something crafty and homemade. First of all it’s typically cheaper than the trending items, and it gives your gift a personal touch. Materials:
Mason Jar (any size)
White Paint
Black paint
Ribbon
Black Paper
Hot Glue Gun
Step 1: Paint the entire mason jar white( excluding the cap).
