Christmas on the Outside

Gumdrop Candy Jar:

Creating a gumdrop candy jar will be the perfect project to house your Christmas candy!  You'll need a clear glass candy jar (any size) and several bags of colorful gumdrops.  Simply hot glue each gumdrop in a circular pattern starting at the top of the jar.  Repeat this step until the jar is completely covered in gumdrops.  Leaving the lid to the candy jar alone will allow you to see the fun Christmas candy inside!

Supplies:

- Clear glass candy jar

- Several bags of gumdrops

- Hot glue gun/ hot glue

Christmas Hurricane Vases:

Let's decorate the dining table with a pair of hurricane vases covered in glitter balls!  At your local craft store, you will find hurricane clear glass vases as well as bags of small to medium glittered Styrofoam balls.  Begin at the top of the hurricane vase and hot glue the glittered balls until the hurricane vase is completely covered.  Once this project is complete, you will have a pair of gorgeous vases to place on the dining table.  Fill with flowers, branches, or candles!

Supplies: 

- 2 hurricane vases

- Bags of Styrofoam glitter balls

- Hot glue gun/ hot glue
