What You Will Need

Instructions

  • Start by punching the stars from the paper. Then just peel the backing from your stars and add them to your jar. Be sure the surface of your jar is clean before adding any stickers.
  • Continue to add the stars randomly around the jar until the entire bug jar has glow in the dark stars on it. Then add some ventilation holes in your lid for the bugs. I used a nail and hammer to add these to the top of my jar.
