  Step 2

  To fill color onto the fabric cover of the jar go over with a wet flat brush with lots of color on the topmost section of your object. This is where you want the color to appear the darkest. The idea is to thin out the paint as you go downwards. You can add a little more water with each horizontal stroke as you go downwards until you get the lightest shade. The finished ombre effect will look like this.

  Step 3

  Use a new watercolor cardstock paper create the same ombre effect this time with two colors. Start using both the colors from opposite direction and spread it towards each other until you reach the center and can see both the colors blend in at their lightest shades creating a lovely ombre effect.
