Jar of Twine

I apologize for not blogging lately,  with work, school, and wedding planning the entire month of February was a blur to me. I decided this past weekend I would do a prototype of my centerpiece.  We are having a rustic vintage style wedding so burlap, mason jars, and lace are the 3 ingredients to the wedding of my dreams.

This next blog is for my Twine Mason Jar, which are part of the centerpiece for my upcoming wedding in September.

I was inspired by this:

 however I didn't want the lace and the burlap. Since I am using a burlap runner and the burlap banners for a previous blog I didn't want to much burlap. I opted for just twine wrapped mason jars.

you will need:
*mason jar of any size, I went with the larger quart size
*Twine- I can not recall off hand the size, however it is located at Walmart in the Jewelry/craft Section
*Hot Glue Gun

You can start anywhere on the jar, I have seen some where people would cover the entire jar with twine. I just wanted the middle section covered since we will have candles and I want the light to reflect off of the glass. Take your glue gun and place a small amount on the glass, next attached the end of the twine and make sure its secure. TRY NOT TO GET BURNED.

 The last step is to just simply wrap the twine around the jar. I would wrap a few times then push the twine down to make sure it covers the whole area and there were no that many gaps.

When you are finished wrapping you simply glue the end of the twine to the jar  with the glue gun like the start of the twine and that's it.

 That's 1/4 of my center piece done. I'm getting there!
