DIY Chalky Finish Milk Jars Tutorial
Step one: Use Painter’s Tape to tape around the top of the vase to make a straight line across. This will give it the “dipped in paint” look.
Step two: Paint the jar using the Spouncer paintbrush below.
Step three: Allow the milk jar to dry completely before removing the tape. Place the jar upside down on wax paper to dry.
Step four: Once dry, remove the tape. Wrap the jute cord around, tie, and trim the ends.
Step five: Enjoy your masterpiece. Feel free to use the milk jars as vases or centerpieces. Michaels’ example included a cotton stem.
It’s that easy to make custom milk jars that complement any home decor or celebrate many occasions.
