As the experiments continue!~
Today I am sharing Mason jars painted with Rit dye and Mod podge
7 different ways.
There will be something for everyone to try.
I really had a lot of fun doing these.
I will be sharing just a few at a time because I want to include the easy tutorial for you to follow.
These mason jars I call the inside out.
Because my technique with the mod podge and Rit dye is done from the inside and the look is on the outside.
Things you need:
Mason jar or any jar of choice, a spaghetti jar would be awesome as well.
Mod podge
Rit dye {color of choice}
Sponge brush
First:
Paint the inside of the mason jar with mod podge
using your sponge brush
Once you have completely covered the inside of the jar
take a ¼ cup, and Fill it half way with your color choice.
Pour in mason jar and
cap it tight.
Shake, rattle and roll:)
not the rattle and roll part.
Shake vigorously being sure to cover all areas.
At that point you can discard the unused portion from the jar.
Cap it back or leave it open and keep upside down until completely dried.
I think I may be using a tad too much, but I want to be sure to get every inch of the inside.
What I learned with this method
is
NO two jars will
turn out the same
Evening Blue Rit blue
seems to be a favorite.
I still have other techniques to share with you.
I would say on a craft level,
this certainly can be done by a beginner.
I did not even have to use latex gloves.
You don’t and should not make a mess.
I do use tin foil or a trash bag under these Rit dye projects, it is dye after all you are working with.
Some of the other techniques are a little, and I mean
a little more skilled crafter level.
I am calling these projects
the Doo-over.
You can follow me
anywhere, anytime.
I really love my facebook page and love all the engagement we get there.
When I need an opinion or help with anything…
I always know where to go:) Thank you.
