You may remember my Primitive Apothecary Jars that I did a couple months ago. I made another set but with a Spring twist.
I painted them Peakaboo Blue by Krylon. Once they were painted they reminded me off a robins egg, perfect for Spring!
I gave them a good sanding to distress them. I then took DecoArt’s Glazing medium and mixed it with some DecoArt Asphaltum. Using a brush I painted the glaze on and after letting it sit for a minute, wiped it off.
Of course, since I was already thinking of robin’s eggs, why not add some? I added some Spanish moss for nests and some little blue eggs I found at Target.
If you looking for a tutorial please visit my original Primitive Apothecary Jars post! I used Gorilla Glue Epoxy (It’s my new favorite glue) with this set though.
Linking up to these great link party!

These are adorable! Really clever!
I’m addicted to these jars ever since seeing your first tutorial. I can’t stop buying old candlesticks and now I’ve got a huge stock in my closet just waiting to be refashioned. I really wanted to make some jars for my sister but couldn’t figure out how it would fit in with her decorating style. These blue jars have given me an idea! Just have to brush-up on my stenciling skills now!
genious! I love this idea and am already gathering the things I need to make my own – thanks for sharng
