The Mom I Want to Be

 

Baby food jar (I made larger ones with mayo & olive jars:  very cute!)

White tissue paper (or you can use white acrylic paint)

Small orange pompom or small tube made from paper

Small black pompom or circles punched from fun foam

Thin ribbon for scarf

Black acrylic paint for lid 

Glue

 

Glue pieces of white tissue paper onto the baby food jar. (I stuffed the inside of the jar with leftover poly fill stuffing and then screwed the lid on, worked great since I wasn’t going to use them as candle holders.) Paint a layer of glue over the whole jar and sprinkle with clear glitter or you can buy the glitter paint in the craft dept. and paint that over the dry jar.  Glue the eyes, nose and mouth onto the jar. Glue a strip of black felt around the open part of the jar (this will be his hat). Then glue a strip of red felt around the jar lid and then glue the jar lid to the jars bottom (that will be his scarf).  This could also be a candy holder.
