I am a compulsive jar hoarder! I find all kinds of uses for all of the jars that we buy things in. I never thought of staining them before, but this is so darned pretty! Just mod-podge and a few drops of food coloring makes them so beautiful! I've wanted aqua canning jars for ages, but either can never find them when I have the money for them or find them when I'm dead broke!
I'm making pretty holiday colored jars for my home made bath fizzies and stuff for Christmas gifting!

Annika,
I made some of these and really love them they will not hold any moisture even after baking in the oven to dry.I found if you put them on a cookie cooling rack to dry naturally the drips will work themselves out better then baking them while wet.

Woops! I think I posted the wrong link. These blogs have directions directions. I a lot of the blogs they suggest putting a coat of spray on craft sealant on them to keep them safe from moisture.
I hope that this helps Penny!
