I LOVE apothecary jars and have wanted to try my had at making them. On the morning of snow day #3, I asked the Mr. T to run me to Goodwill so I could get some craft on (I had stuff to do here, but really wanted to find stuff to make this.) The candle stick was to tall, but I think it still looks good. The jar I found had a plastic insert, but I took it out so it looked less cheap. I used e6000 glue, my go to glue, and jazzed it up with some vinyl. I can’t wait to get some candy to put in it.
I did sand the bottom of the jar and the top of the candlestick a little before I applied the glue.
I used the font Freebooter Script from fontgarden and the hearts are a Photoshop brush called harts brushes by hawksmont. I don’t know where I downloaded them from, maybe deviantart.com
I LOOOOVE it !! thx 4 sharing!
