I've just moved into my new house and boy am I learning everything costs a lot in this world :). So I decided that I should start saving a lot more and one of the ways to save would be to create a cute money jar. Why go out and buy an expensive one when I'm trying to save :). So I purchased some PVA glue and glitter from the £ shop and saved a used pasta sauce jar. And this is what I got :) Enjoy!

You Will Need (8 things)

  • Newspaper
  • Paintbrush
  • 2 Splash Of Water
  • Glass Jar
  • Glitter
  • PVA Glue
  • Screwdriver
  • Container / Something To Put Glue In

Steps (5 steps, 720 minutes)

  1. 1

    First soak the jar if it has a label on to get it off nice and easy. And then with a screwdriver and some force make a coin slot in the lid. The metal is usually very thin so it should be pretty easy. And then gather the rest of your materials.

  2. 2

    Squeeze the glue into an old container or cup like me :).

  3. 3

    Take your paintbrush and paint the glue all over coating the whole lid.

  4. 4

    Now comes the fun and messy part. Sprinkle your chosen glitter all over the glue covered lid, until the lid is completely smothered in glittery awesomeness. I would then advise you leave this to dry overnight and then do another coat of glue and glitter. And then leave that to dry overnight again. OPTIONAL - You can also make a mixture of PVA glue and a splash of water and wash it over the lid to set the glitter in place.

  5. 5

    Lé Finished product! :) This is a project that you can get really creative with i. e add bows, different colour glitter, paint, labels saying what type of coin jar it is for example 'Tattoo fund'.
