Simple Jelly Bean Jar

By , About.com Guide

Instructions for making a small jelly bean holder using a baby food jar.

Materials Needed:

  • Baby Food Jar
  • Pastel Paint
  • Easter Grass (optional)
  • Jelly Beans
  • Pastel Ribbon
Instructions:
This project is simple to make and would be a great gift for someone special!

Start out by painting the lid a pastel color. Set it aside to dry. If you desire, you can also decorate it with stickers, etc.

Simply lay a little Easter grass in the bottom of the jar and then add the jelly beans until the jar is full.

Screw on the dried cap, and then tie a ribbon around the edge of the cap. You can secure the ribbon in place by using a few drops of glue if necessary.
