1/2" Wide Paintbrush

Medium or Large sized Jar or Jug

1. In a bowl, mix glue and 1/3 parts water.

2. Stir with your brush and add more glue for a pasty consistency. 

3. Right out of the package, cut three 1" thick strips of tissue paper.

4. Place one of your strips against the jar, and brush on glue. 

5. Repeat process until entire jar is covered. 

6. Use a black marker to make the face of your creature.

If you are using a glass jar, you can keep the top open and use small tea light candles for a moving glow effect. If your jar or jug is plastic, DO NOT USE USE A CANDLE. This could cause your jar to melt and may start a fire. Simply use string lights instead for a more constant glowing effect.
