VALENTINE FOR HUBBY


If you follow this blog you will know that hubby likes his Twizzlers and I like to make him festive jars for the different holidays and today I made him his Valentine jar.
 Sorry forgot to put the spray paint in the photo! It's all easy, a jar (I used a tall canning jar) any jar will do - you can always use a knife or kitchen shears to cut the Twizzers to size for the jar. I spray painted the lid and ring red and after it dried (a few minutes in the oven with the oven light on will dry this pretty quickly) then run a bead of hot glue around the lid and attach the ring, that way when you take off the lid it is in once piece. I used some curly-q ribbon from the store to glue to the rim of the ring piece, made my little label in Corel Draw and added a little lace to that and attached to the top.  Glued (hot glue) some more ribbon and a sprig of greenery to the front added a little plastic heart to finish off the front and done.
