i got this idea from HERE
Supplies
--Jars, any size; you can even use empty, glass food jars like pickle or salsa jars. I actually kind of really like them because a) they're free and b) they're totally smooth.
--Tissue paper
--Holiday cut-outs. You want to use regular paper or card stock, not tissue paper, for the cut-outs.
--Mod Podge
--Sponge brushes
--Ribbon
Now...for a large Mason jar, you'll use about 1/2 of a regular sheet of tissue paper. Rip the paper into 2-inch strips. You'll find that if you tear it one direction, it'll tear in a relatively straight line and if you tear it in the other direction, it's a hot mess. Don't complicate your life--tear it in the easy direction.
If your jar is large enough, place your non-dominant hand inside the jar and paint a thin layer of Mod Podge from the bottom to the top of the outside of the jar--you're just sticking your hand inside the jar to easily hold and rotate the jar, but no paper or Mod Podge actually goes inside. Don't worry about Mod Podging the very bottom of the jar--no one's gonna see it, so there's no sense in causing yourself all the trouble of having a sticky bottom. Minds out of the gutter, people... :)
Smooth each 2" (approximate) strip onto the Mod Podged part of the jar and then repeat until the entire jar is covered in tissue paper. Decide where you want to place the design and then heavily Mod Podge that area. Place the cut-out where you want it and then Mod Podge everything one last time. Figure out which end is least sticky and set it down on that end. Let the jar dry.
When your jar is dry, trim any excess tissue paper and Mod Podge anything down that needs to be smoothed out. Choose a coordinating ribbon and tie it around the top (great for hiding any awkwardness with the mouth of the jar. I'll be honest, I've made a TON of these things and the mouth of the jar is always awkward for me).
Drop a tealight in and light 'em up! I'm not sure it could get more festive... :)
Imagine this little guy, all full of something sweet...
