For this DIY, you will need: jars, tissue paper, holiday cut-outs (using regular paper or card stock), Mod Podge, sponge brushes, and ribbon.
You can fill your mason jar with holiday treats, or you can add a nice glow to your room with candles! While the dorms at school don’t allow real candles, you can pick up electronic candles to create the same effect.
