DIY: Hurricane/Apothecary Jars
If you know me, you know that I am very frugal. I wasn't always this way though. As a matter of fact I used to spend a lot of money on glass hurricane and apothecary jars for my home.
But not anymore.. I am going to show you how to make a hurricane or apothecary jar for under $3.00! My beautiful granddaughter is turning one in a week and we are having a big party for her. I come from a very large family (I’m one of seven,) so there are going to be a lot of people there. The costs could run crazy for a first birthday this size (think food, decorations, etc.) However, I don’t plan on paying a lot of money for her party. I plan on being creative! I love creative things.
During the next week I will be posting my DIY (do it yourself) tutorials for Haley’s party here for you. I was planning on doing these glass hurricane/apothecary jars for my family this year for Christmas (remember I only spend $5.00 per person,) but instead I’ve decided to use them as decorations for Haley’s party and then let my family “make” one to take home. Birthday parties are a perfect time for a mini craft project. Who knows, maybe I’ll get a really fun hurricane or apothecary jar for Christmas this year.
If I had time I would etch each persons initial on the vases but alas between all the food that needs to be made, the cakes (yup that’s plural) and decorations, I’m going to skip that this time. 
Needed (all of these can be found at your local Dollar Tree)
1 Hurricane or Apothecary Vase $1.00
1 Candlestick Holder $1.00
1 Tube of Crazy Glue $1.00/3
Rim the top of the candlestick holder and place the vase on top - seriously that’s all there is to it. I usually wait 20 minutes before I “check” the power of the hold and I’ve never had a problem.
Think of all of the fun possibilities you can have w/these jars. Fall and Halloween are coming you can fill the vases w/mini pinecones, leaves, acorns or even candy! I plan on filling these babies to the brim w/bubble gum. Is it any wonder why my nieces and nephews love me the most
