Makeup Monday: DIY- Makeup Storage Jars


What you will need:
  • Candle Jars (Square or Round)
  • Candle Stick Holders
  • Ribbon (optional)













All materials for this project can be found at Dollar Tree in the candle isle. They are regularly found items so this project can easily be duplicated.


Directions:

1. Remove all price stickers. These are glass and we are gluing them so you are going to want a clean surface.







 2. Put hot glue around the rim of the candlestick holder.It will begin to dry pretty quickly so work fast, don't worry if the glue starts to drip.








3. Place square jar on the top of the candlestick holder while the glue is still hot. It will bond pretty quickly so make sure its straight! You also don't want it to look messy.

4. Repeat. For a more unique look, try putting the candle jar on a slant when gluing. This will only work with the round type jars. You will get something that looks like this:




5. Add a ribbon for some extra decor. You could also try to add some other embellishments like flowers in the same spot to get a different look.


Bonus:

These jars also make great accent pieces when decorating so think outside of the box! You can recreate these looks or use different jars, like mason jars on top. Have fun with it!

Tip:
To ensure that your glue holds, clean the surface that you will be gluing with rubbing alcohol before applying hot glue; your skin has oil that rubs off very easily on glass.
