What you'll need:
- glass jar
- white tissue paper
- pink tissue paper
- scissors

- small bowl
- paint brush
- candle
What you'll do:
- Remove any labels and thoroughly clean your glass jar.
- Cut the white tissue paper into 1-inch squares.
- Cut the pink tissue paper into heart shapes of assorted sizes.
- Make a 50/50 solution of glue and water in the small bowl.
- Paint the glue mixture over the entire glass jar.
- Cover the glass jar with the squares of white tissue paper, overlapping the squares so that the whole jar is covered.
- Paint over the white tissue paper with a layer of the glue mixture, then press the pink hearts on to the jar.
- Paint over the hearts with the glue mixture, then allow the jar to dry.
- Once the glue is completely dry, put a candle inside the jar and light it.
