DIY Jar Of Fairy Wishes...❥

A 'Jar Of Fairy Wishes'...

Isn't this the most special idea.

And what a wonderful gift for a fairy lover!

You can make the jar of fairy wishes any size you like...

but I opted for a cute mini hexagonal style jar.

These wee jars come in a range of sizes and you'll find them at Briscoes.

I chose it because of the blue gingham print lid, 

knowing that this jar of fairy wishes would be on a shelf with my blue and white pieces.

To make your own 'Jar Of Fairy Wishes' you'll need:

*Dried dandelion seed heads

(whole and in pieces - I just picked them whenever I saw them and popped them into a large glass in my china cabinet and left them for about three weeks to dry out.)

*A jar with a lid or cork top.

(Remember the bigger the jar, the more dried dandelion you will need)

*Cord, ribbon or string to tie a bow at the neck of the jar.

*Scrapbook embellishments to decorate the lid or cork of the jar.

To Make:

Carefully fill your jar with whole and pieces of dandelion seed-heads.

Embellish the lid to pretty it up and to hide the writing on it.

I used a pre-cut flower shape

I glued this in place.

Then I topped that shape with another sequined flower shape that was a little smaller.

Using a blue and white twisted cord, I tied a bow at the neck of the jar, and knotted the cut ends.

Then I added a couple of pretty paper flowers to each side of the bow.

I love fairies, and I'm loving this 'Jar Of Fairy Wishes'...

I expect to make more of these to gift.

Other fairy lovers would adore it!
