DIY Garden Glow Jars


Enjoy nights out on the deck or in the garden with the easy DIY.

What you need
 coloured marbles of your choice
 clear marbles
 glow in the dark paint
 ziplock baggie
 wax paper
 jar

Step one:
You will need your ziplock baggies, paint and clear marbles. Start by putting your clear marbles in the baggie and putting some paint in the baggies. Shake the baggie to disperse the paint and evenly coat the marbles.

Step Two:
Once your marbles are coated with paint lay the marbles out on the wax paper to dry. Use wax paper because the paint will dry to the surface of the paper and it can easily be removed. Leave the marbles to try, you may  want to move them around on the wax paper now and then just to make sure it all dries.

Step Three:
If wanted coat the marbles in a second coat of glow in the dark paint (makes them glow better, but its up to you) and leave them to dry.

Step Four:
Take your coloured marbles, now glow in the dark marbles and jar. Put the marbles into the jar and its easiest if you alternate about every layer.
