Some jars (Mason jars, spaghetti sauce jars...any jars will do!)
Tissue Paper
Mod Podge (available at craft stores)
Ribbon
Paint brush
Glue
Black paper
You can either start by covering your jar with Mod Podge (including the bottom of the jar) and then wrapping the tissue paper around the jar, or you can cut the tissue paper into strips and place Mod Podge and the strips on one at a time. After your tissue paper is on the jar, brush some more Mod Podge over the top of it to seal it.
You can attach a piece of ribbon to the rim of the jar, place a tea light inside and you have completed your lantern!
Happy Halloween and enjoy!
Much of this post--including the pictures--came from this website, a blog I would highly recommend:
