- Use a small brush to paint ovals of various sizes throughout the outside of the box in Snow White. Let dry.
- Transfer a favorite quote to the outside of the box in pencil. Use a Black Glass Paint Marker to trace the design/quote. Use Fuchsia, Orange, and Turquoise Glass Paint Markers to fill in the letters.
- Use scissors to cut out tissue paper (in yellow, light blue, green) into small squares.
- Use a medium brush and Matte Decou-Page to adhere the tissue squares to the Mason jars (one in each color).
- Continue adhering the tissue squares to the entire Mason jar, except for the top rim. Let dry.
- Place the Mason jars in the box.
