Snowy Jars with Spray Adhesive

Here at Berry and Pine, I am not new to the snowy jar, snowy mason jar, snowy vase, etc… And over the years I’ve found the best “glue” to make these really come alive: spray adhesive.

Yes, the star of the show is a glue. While you can use ModPodge for this craft, I find that the spray adhesive allows for:

two coats quickly (no waiting for the first coat to dry like ModPodge)
it covers more completely
more of the Epsom salt stays on the jar after drying and handling

How to Make Snowy Oui Jars

Below are the step by step instructions for this easy upcycle craft idea. Keep this page open and follow along or scroll down to print this.

First, clean and dry the glass jars completely.

Empty some Epsom salt into the container and break up any clumps. It’s best to work with individual grains.

Next, protect your work surface and spray the jar well. Roll it into the salt, slightly pressing it down.

Remove the jar, spray again, and press it into the salt once more. Two coats will ensure a full coating of “snow” for each jar. Repeat with the other jars and set aside to dry.

Wrap baker’s twine under the lip of the Oui jar and tie on a piece of greenery and berries.

add an LED or flame candle
