DIY Stars in Jars

Well, summer is winding down and school is starting
for us next week. 
I was looking through Pinterest last night
for hours...and hours....loving all of the beautiful
and fun ideas and came across this project.

Stars in Jars!


What you need:
Mason Jars
Glow in the Dark Paint
Wooden sticks or small paint brushes

What to do:
Dip your stick or brush in the paint
Splatter inside the jar

That is all!
This would be so fun for my kids rooms
or for a sleep over party craft!

  7. What type of paint did you use? I am anxious to try this project and I don't have any lying around. A quick check on Amazon.com did not yield awesome results.

    Any suggestions?

    1. Any glow in the dark paint should work.
      Hope that helps!

    1. You could make it during the day. You can see the paint splash. It will just not glow.
      Thanks for stopping by!

    1. You should be able to find the paint at your local hardware or craft stores. You can also look online.
      Thanks!

  12. This seems like it would glow longer using the glow in the dark paint instead of breaking open a glow stick. Can you put glitter in with the paint as well? Going back to visit my grandkids and this would be a great project...Love it!
