Snowflake Candle Jar with Jam J-art & #DDDHMC

When I was first contacted regarding the Jam J-art campaign, I wondered how on earth I hadn't heard of it before! A big feature of Diddle Diddle Dumpling's Home Made Christmas thus far has involved recycling jars and making something extra special for Christmas with them. The concept behind Jam J-art is to use a bog standard jam jar & turn it into something new & most importantly, useful! And since it's the time of year for all things twinkly, I decided to share my ridiculously simple but beautifully festive Snowflake Candle Jar with the guys over a Jam J-art.

All you need is a recycled jam jar, some stickers (I used these Snowflake ones from eBay but your standard Gold Star stickers are a good alternative) and a can of spray paint. It really is as simple as putting your stickers on your [clean] jar, giving it a spray with your spray paint - I use black but any colour will work too, just make sure you get a good even covering, two coats should do - and then once dried, remove the stickers. And to really amp up the Christmas-ness, use a Christmas scented tea-light of your choice!

These make the perfect gift as well as the perfect home decoration, especially when the lights are low and the Christmas tree is lit up in it's full glory! I've already got plans to make a number more of these before the big day. If you do decided to give the Snowflake Candle Jar a go, be sure to let me know on your chosen social media with the Diddle Diddle Dumpling Home Made Christmas hashtag #DDDHMC as well at the Jam J-art hashtag #JAMJART.

Happy making!
