Let cool for 20 minutes. If the jars still have streaks, place them back in the oven for 10 minute increments…until the streaks disappear. Make sure to cool the jars for at least 20 minutes, between each minute stint in the oven. Note: We ended up doing cycles in the oven to eliminate as many drips and streaks as possible. We still ended up with a few drips in each jar…but they are not very noticeable. How To Make Color-Mixing Tinted Mason Jars: We were intrigued when the Shutterfly tutorial mentioned the possibility of using more than one color of glue per jar…to create marbled jars.
Set aside a mason jar. Start by selecting different colors of food coloring. Note: I decided to use larger plastic cups this time, to make it easier for our little nugget to stir them all by herself! Carefully add 2 drops of food coloring, along with roughly 1 teaspoon of water, to each cup — making sure to keep the different colors separate for now. Stir each cup, with their own wooden craft sticks, until the ingredients are fully combined…creating one consistent color in each cup.
Pour the various colors of glue mixture into a glass mason jar. Swirl the colors around inside the mason jar…spinning the jar in every direction to thoroughly coat the inside. Slowly pour the excess glue back into one of the used plastic cups. Repeat the above steps for any additional color-mixing tinted mason jars that you wish to create. Once the jars have dried the appropriate amount of time, place them upside down on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Summertime Citrus Potions ». Comments OMG! Join Us on Instagram. Follow Jamie on Pinterest and Instagram! I am nervous about baking??! I googled and it says you should never bake mason jars, they are not meant to be in the oven. Are we sure this is ok?????? Hi Melinda! I totally get that! Jamie did bake them — make sure your oven is set for the lowest temperature. If baking them makes you nervous, you could absolutely skip that part!
Have you used them as vases? Thank you for the great project! Hi Anna! Great question — Jamie just used the regular Mod Podge. This looks like an awesome craft! Does it have to be Mason jars, or could I use recycled jars? Like peanut butter jars from grocery store? Since they hold up in the oven to cure the glue, they may stand up to the heat of a candle. Make a couple so you have a spare just in case!
Thanks for the inspiration! But I do have one criticism. Your website is very difficult to use because of all the constant ads! Hi Crissie! Great question! If you paint the inside, the water will ruin the paint but if you paint the outside of the jar, you should have no problem with the water. Hi Erin! Hi Glenda! If you paint the outside of the jar, you should have no problem with the water. If you paint the inside, the water will ruin the paint. These came out beautiful!
Love how vibrant these came out. How much mod podge and food coloring did you use? Hi Cindy! The amount of food coloring you add is going to depend on how dark you want the color to be!
Hi I am wanting to do this as a Christmas gift for the grandmas. I want the colors to be gold silver and white. Would it work to use this metallic paint? Or will The normal yellow food coloring come out gold? Thanks Kelly. Hi Kelly! The yellow food coloring might look gold! I would have like mine little thick paint look.
Would it be ok to come bavk to them another day and repeat process? Hi Christina! If you try it, let us know how it goes! How do I do it when I wanted to add a silhouette on mason jar and also some glitter do I put it on outside or inside the silhouette and what kind of pain t. Hi Annmarie! The paint that was used was a mixture of Mod Podge and food coloring. You could add glitter to the paint! You could add a silhouette on either the inside out outside — it just depends on what you would like!
I done one supose to be green food color but it looked blue which was fine but after i baked it , it looks black what did i do wrong and what can i do. Please help. Hi Maria! Make sure they are set high up in the oven. You could also try not baking them — several readers commented that this worked well for them. Also, other readers commented that the jars can be soaked and the Modge Podge will wash off so you can reuse the jars. Good luck! Then we will label them as Blessings and answered prayers.
Each week they will write one memory, blessing, event. In December we will look through our jars to remember how God blessed us throughout the year. Thank you for the beautiful craft!
Ours look streaky. You can see the brushstrokes. And I followed your tutorial to a T. Very disappointed. No idea what went wrong.
Maybe too thin of a coating? A few readers have commented that if you soak the jars, the color will wash off and you can try them again. Hopefully it works out next time!
I was just curious as to how they came out looking so shiny and almost like a metallic type finish? They are super pretty!! Hi Jackie! Glad you like them! How many of these jars have you done? I let the jars sit for a few minutes before putting in the oven and the glue just melted down the sides. Hi, we tried making the Mason jars. The paint almost completely dripped out while upside down, before baking them. There is basically no color on left on the glass.
Different brand paints can have really different consistencies, so maybe yours was on the thinner side. I am making vintage glassware flowers. I want to use colored glass and it is pretty scarce where I live. Wondering if this method might work. Also wondering about using either acrylic or enamel paint instead of food coloring. Let us know if you try it! If it does work, let us know! They look beautiful! Do you think you can use them as drinking glasses? Would it be safe? If you paint the inside, the water will obviously ruin the paint.
Hi, just put smaller jar or, better yet, cut a smaller plastic bottle to right height to fit inside for holding flowers and water. I would think it would change the appearance of the jars. I made some of the jars , my question is does the neon food coloring make it have the marble effect.
I ended up making lanterns for the outside and put bug oil. We really like the way they turned. Thank you. The marbled look is just from how the kids painted them. I bought jars of colored scent beads that I got at the dollar store. Red and also yellow.
