  Step 1

  Gather Supplies (and memories). I brought all sorts of things back from this trip. (Use what you want, save the other stuff for something else if you so desire.)

• 

  Step 2

  Start with one clean jar.

• 

  Step 3

  (OPTIONAL) Paint or decorate lid, if desired. (I used a bit of pain to cover the printing with sand and a couple of shells glued on top.)

• 

  Step 4

  Base level of jar. (In this case sand I brought back from the beach.)

• 

  Step 5

  Arrange peices inside. (In this case it was shells, a small chunk of coral, a votive, bubbles, and confetti from the wedding/reception.)

• 

  Step 6

  Adorn outside. (Don't over do it! You still want to see the stuff inside.) I used hot glue to attached a row of ribbon from a wedding program, a few purple flower stick ons (trust me on glue use hot glue, don't rely just on their sticky back), and a couple pieces of the flowered confetti. Then used a clear glitter glue to add a few accents.

  Step 7

  When dry, attach lid. Display.

Painted top, then used a white craft glue that dried clear for the sandand stuff. Hot glue dries too quick for adhering sand or glitter.
