Jubilee Jars - Tutorial




Just in case you are not already in a state of panic preparing last minute decorations for your street party or BBQ, then here is a very simple 5 minute Jubilee tutorial just in time for the celebrations this weekend.

You will need:
A variety of glass jars (different sizes)
A selection of scrap material (Jubilee colours)
Additional accessories (ribbons, trimmings, buttons etc)
Strong adhesive or glue gun
Pinking shears or scissors



 Step 1:
Cut strips of fabric with pinking shears, long enough to wrap around your jar and high enough to cover the main body.

Step 2:
Glue one end of the fabric to the jar, continue to glue as you pull the fabric tight to the jar. Seal until all the fabric is attached.  Leave to dry.



Step 3:
Decorate with trimmings of your choice.  I used garden yarn, buttons and ribbons.





Congratulations - Your Jubilee Jars are complete!


Additional Tips
*Add tea lights for a party that lasts all night long*




 *Or use them to display your cutlery*



Yes this tutorial is really as easy as it looks!

Nice to see you again.
