I started by giving my jar a couple of coats of paint. I used Glamour Dust from DecoArt in silver. I like the jar to be a gift even after the mix is gone. This gives you a glittery container for your gift and an extra special home decor gift for your recipient as well.

What size jar did you use??
A quart size jar is perfect for this one! 🙂 I prefer wide mouth for these types of gifts.
