On Pinterest I have seen so many cute apothecary jars. I wanted to make one and fill it with candy for a Christmas happy. I found an interesting jar in a box of glassware I bought at a garage sale. Also in the box was one lone martini glass. These two were destined to be joined together to make my apothecary jar. So many of the jars I have loved involved white lids. I decided white was going to be my theme on this one.
I was not thrilled with how the paint job on the bottom half came out. I was going for the dipped in paint look. Oh well! At this point you add a big bow and all is well.
I added a bow to cover up any painting mistakes and it is ready to gift.

We all make mistakes. I think it would look nice on a bookcase though. With a family of 5 a candy jar is pointless. LOL
simple but looks gorgeous..
