Mod Podge on glass with napkins
Hi there friends! Last week when I shared my pizza pan door hanger HERE, I mentioned I would probably make some votives to go along with the motiff.
The Dollar tree Spring napkins are so pretty and they holler Spring is in the air. It is in the air here too btw. I can already feel the allergies creeping up on me.
These Dollar tree Spring napkins are different in than the average square napkins. They have a pretty little scallop to them. For this project you will need some clean empty jars, mod podge, sponge brush, and napkin of choice.
As I was cleaning out the fridge of one olive, and pickle here and there, I decided to clean the jars by soaking them in warm sudsy water, then removing the labels. They were the perfect size I was looking for to create little bud vases.
I opened the napkin, pulled one ply off and cut it in a third. I then used my sponge brush to paint on the Mod Podge. I prefer using a sponge brush because they do not leave brush strokes and the Mod Podge goes on nice and even.
After I painted the jar with the Mod Podge, I simply adhered the napkin to the jar, and lightly painted over it again with the Mod Podge.
You can use your fingers to smooth out any wrinkles. You may not get them perfect. I love the way they dried onto the glass. Almost looking vintage, and a bit weathered.
The lavender also came from Dollar tree and was wrapped in burlap. It fit perfectly into my jars. Cheers to Spring!
I love to Mod Podge and glass and have done those sort of projects a hundred times. Mod Podge on Glass HERE
Better yet is the fact that I recycled jars that would have gone in the recycle bin anyhow. Wouldn’t these look so cute on a Spring bridal shower, or even a baby shower event. Get the gals together and have a fun craft night. Make sure to save your jars:)

I spray painted Oui yogurt jars and used thm for tea light holders at my daughter’s outdoor wedding.
Hi Debbie, I was just thinking of this, a dollar store vase, but your idea made me realize I have empty quart jars downstairs. Your always creative.
Those little vases are so cute, Debbie! I can’t wait to make one. Gotta get some of those DT napkins! Thanks for the tutorial. (I liked the tray, too!)
Hi Debbie, I just bought these napkins last week, and I was thinking that they were too pretty to use at the table. Thanks for the great ideas!
You are welcome! enjoy:)
