Jar-Vase

Have you ever tried to put a flower arrangement in a skinny vase, and THEY WOULDN'T FIT! It is really annoying. This was the problem facing me tonight. So, I was looking through my cupboards, deciding what I could use instead. I saw an empty glass jar, and thought, that might work. (If I make it pretty first:) So I got out my faithful jar of modge podge and found some cute scrapbook paper. Then I measured the paper and modge podged the paper to the jar. I added a second layer of paper with "Happy Birthday" on it. (Any saying would work.) Then I tied some ribbon around the top and I had a flower vase. (Now I don't have to buy one!!)
