Tutorial Thursday: Fireworks Jar

With the Fourth of July right around the corner, I've been waiting for my Garyn to ask the question I get every year...
"Mom, can we do fireworks this year?"  
Um, no.  I. am. scared. of. fireworks.
They just seem so darn dangerous and I really don't want my fingers blown off, or his for that matter.  We've done sparklers before, but that's about all I'll even try.
So, I'm checking out Pinterest the other day and I see this rockin' tutorial from The Gold Jellybean about the following craft.  I decided after making these, that this craft would be perfect for our "fireworks" this holiday.  Add these jars to sparklers, and we'll be all set!







I forgot to add that this is not something I'd let the kids make themselves, unless they were older, due to the chemicals involved.  But, if you hot glue the lid down, they will have a blast playing with these Fireworks in a Jar!

Happy Crafting,

  2. Neat idea! We had one break on our hands before and the glow stuff got on our hands...but a totally cool idea to have it in a jar!
