Repurposing Glass Jars with Alcohol Inks

[@craftmeacard]

How fun Rebecca!! I love the thought of having art with alcohol inks on my desk!!! Wonderful idea!! They came out beautiful!!! 😍👏👏👏👍👍

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thank you… it is a small touch of color added to my crafting desk, but I love seeing it there. Thanks for always watching and being so supportive, I truly appreciate you!

[@YvetteOleaCreates]

Just beautiful! Time to pull out some glass jars from my garage. TFS 😊

[@PaperGlueFun]

Have fun… this is a good craft you can do with only one hand until your arm heals.🤗🤗

[@TheSunshineCrafterKellyFusco]

Great idea! These are so diverse....i forget we can use them on sooo many things! Beautiful ❤

[@PaperGlueFun]

Making alcohol inks my focus for April has really helped me to remember how versatile they can be. Thank you so much for watching and commenting.🤗

[@TheSunshineCrafterKellyFusco]

@@PaperGlueFun yes thats a good idea (1 mo focus item)

[@YvetteTheCardGirl]

Wow that turned out awesome. I like it. Glad you like your pokey tool 🤗 have a blessed beautiful day

[@PaperGlueFun]

I love my pokey tool and glue pin! Now they are in my pretty new inked jar! I think of you every time I use them!🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@CookScrapCraft]

What a cool project! It reminds me of stained glass. Thanks for sharing!

[@PaperGlueFun]

It really is fun. I just did another one on a flat piece of glass that I want to use as a background for a poem... it does look like stained glass!

[@AmandaJoJoXoXo]

So much fun playing tlwith inks great idea

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thanks sweet friend… I appreciate you watching.🤗

[@olivia8979]

Thanks for the inspiration. I am always looking for more uses for my alcohol inks

[@PaperGlueFun]

I'm so happy I was able to provide some inspiration, that is what I hope for with this channel. Thank you so much for watching and commenting.

[@thecraftyvisage]

What a neat idea to recycle and reuse, Rebecca!! Goo gone usually works for me to take the sticky off of my jars, from removing the labels! I reuse food jars to ferment foods in. That little jar reminds me of the Oui French style yogurt jars, I love those because they have a nice finished rim around the top!! I may have to pull out my alcohol inks and some old jars and give this a try!! Thanks for the inspiration!

[@PaperGlueFun]

Oh my goodness! You are right! That was a dairy-free Oui jar! I couldn’t remember where that one came from until I saw your comment. My hubby has some Goo Gone in the garage, I’ll have to try that next time (thank you for the good suggestion). It is a fun technique and no two jars come out the same… have fun!

[@jillclaydon]

Great video, love this idea.

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thank you for watching… if you give it a try let me know how it turns out for you.😃

[@jerseycgirl.e]

Oh wow this is such a great idea. I love how they came out. I will definitely try this. I have so many jars. I love jars. Tfs❤

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thank you for your sweet support Emily. It always amazes me how a little thing like changing the color of a storage jar can brighten up a craft area! Let me know how it goes for you.

[@jerseycgirl.e]

@@PaperGlueFun Yes and even altering a coffee can or something makes me feel so artsy🤭 and like did something so grand.lol

[@CraftingwithQuillingLady]

What a great idea Rebecca, I've ever used alcohol inks that way, I definitely need to try this technique, I have a couple of glass jars 😁😁😁 great video 😊 happy crafting

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thanks Monika... have fun playing with your alcohol inks and your jars... I bet you will come up with some beautiful results! BTW: I saw you won a prize on the Autoimmune Awareness Hop! Congratulations!🎉

[@CraftingwithQuillingLady]

@@PaperGlueFun hi Rebecca, i always used glass paints on glass jars 😊 thank you for the news about the hop! I missed that! Have a wonderful day and happy crafting 😘

[@PaperGlueFun]

@@CraftingwithQuillingLady Be sure to watch Terra’s video so you see how to claim your prize! Again… congratulations!

[@CutiePatootieCrafts]

Alcohol ink is so daunting to me lol but I love watching other people play around with it 😆 love how the jars turned out. 😁

[@kaymad143]

I love this! Thank you for sharing!

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thank you for watching! If you create some and post pics on social media sometime let me know, I would love to see what you create.🤗

[@janiethecraftprincess]

I love those Oui yogurt jars!!! My hubby would eat that yogurt just so I could have the jars 😊 I have a video on how to get the glue off. I have dozens of alcohol inks and this is a great project! I have never tried that technique with the plastic wrap....very cool! I really like the second one best....even before you added the dripping. I enjoyed watching this....didn't know you did this kind of stuff 😊💗🤗 Hugs....Janie

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thank you Janie, you are the sweetest. It seems like lately my channel has been “card heavy” because I’ve been participating in a lot of Giveaway Hops to provide my subscribers a chance to win prizes, however, I do have some projects on my video production schedule once again that will be crafts other than cards. I have some fun paper ornaments, art journal, and scrapbook ideas I want to share, too. I have alcohol ink jars scattered all over my house. They add such a sparkly pop of color, can be color customized and are useful for storing everything from cotton balls in the bathroom to dry erase markers next to the whiteboard. I appreciate you going back to some of my “old” videos, it makes me happy they are still relevant. Sending warm hugs, 🤗❤️🤗

[@victoriakellogg6459]

VERY PRETTY!!!

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thank you so much Victoria! I appreciate your encouragement.

[@DreamCraftCreate]

Beautiful!!! I love alcohol inks. I bet to make the ink show up more you could pour white paint and swirl the inside of the jar. That would be pretty too. 🙂

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thanks Charlene, that is a great idea! If you do that method, send me a picture, I would love to see! I have one jar I did that I store cotton balls in, that shows up pretty.

[@shikhasingh5427]

Nice video sharing 👌 👍 new friend ❤

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting, keep in touch!

[@PrinceCreations9]

Waooo ossssuuuummmmmm

[@PaperGlueFun]

Thank you.😃

[@lindaclarke9249]

What do you seal it with

[@valeriebegley3590]

How well do the alcohol inks hold up on glass. Do they need to be sprayed with any sealer?

[@PaperGlueFun]

Valerie, thank you for watching. I don't use any sealer on my jars. I generally use the jars to store little odds and ends (silk flower arrangements, paperclips, paint brushes, pencils, etc.) and they hold up great. The color stays vibrant and the ink doesn't rub off. I've not ever run them through the dishwasher or anything harsh like that though.

[@williammclaughlin5629]

Beautiful result! Great glove technique, btw. Ever considered nursing as a career? 😁

[@PaperGlueFun]

Been there, done that!😂👩🏻‍⚕️😷💉🩺😂 Thanks for watching!
