Altered Mini Jars

September 7, 2011 · by: Cathie Filian

Altered mini jars are popping up all over!  You can stuff them with everything from love notes to trinkets.  They are great for storing small beads and glitter too.  I was so excited when I spotted them for my shop!  I ordered a slew of them and have been making many different designs with them.

I especially love the idea of building a glass shrine or a mini terrarium with one.  To make a piece of jewelry, just wrap the neck with a few loops of twine or jump-ring some chain and dangle some charms around the neck.

The corks fill the opening nicely and are easy to remove.  They can be glued with a drop of two if you want to secure the cork.

I have the jars in the Alter Me section of the store.  You can see that section here.  They are sold by the dozen, 2″ tall, 7/8″ across the bottom, they come with cork toppers and they are clear glass.
