I purchased some second hand Kilner jars from ebay. The lids were a little rusty, I was not comfortably using them for food, so I looked around for something else I could use the jars for. I recently saw something similar to this on Pinterest.
My initial idea was to hide the battery pack in the lid but the pack was too large for that. However, because of the design of the Kilner Jar I was able to take the wire out through the top of the lid and the little fabric mop cap nicely hides everything. (The micro lights can either be on static or flashing.) Finally I tied some Christmassy ribbon around the lid and finished it with a bow.

What a fabulous way to use something that might otherwise have ended up in the bin! Love this idea, gotta get me some of those micro-lights! Very creative Dionne! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteThank you. I got a batch of those lights because I have a few other ideas.

Love this idea, especially with the coloured lights. Thinking a row of these would look fabulous on the Christmas table :)xx
ReplyDeleteOw, yes. Especially if you set them to twinkle.
