Make a Tooth Fairy Jar!! Free Instructions!

Make a Tooth Fairy Jar!! Free Instructions!

http://www.craftplanet.com/Creations..._fairy_jar.htm
Materials Needed:
One 2 1/2" tall clear glass square spice bottle with a cork
Wood turnings: one 1" wood ball knob, two 1/4" round beads, one 1" heart
12" of 1 1/4" wide metallic gold wire-edged ribbon
Yo-yos: two 1" wide yellow/pink/green
Two 1" wide metallic gold ribbon roses
12" of 1/8" wide metallic gold wired cording
6" of gold thread
#4 flat paintbrush
Acrylic paints: fleshtone, metallic gold, light coral
Fine line black permanent marker

Procedure:
Step One: The Head and the Hands

Paint the knob and beads fleshtone; paint the heart gold. With the marker, draw black dots for the eyes and mouth, and write "tooth" on the heart. Blush the cheeks with light coral. Using the brush handle, dot light coral around the edge of the heart.

Step Two: The Sleeves

Glue the knob on top of the cork. Wrap the cork. For the sleeves, glue a yo-yo on each corner of the bottle aqs shown. Glue the beads on the yo-yos as shown. Insert thread through the beads from beneath; leave 1 1/2" slack below and tie the ends above in a knot. Glue the loop of thread
to the top back of the heart, and press both onto the bottle below the beads. Glue the roses pointing forward on top of the head.

Step Three: The Wings

Gather the gold ribbon by pulling the wire along one edge. Make a circle with the gathering along the inside. Pinch the middle of the circle to form two loops; wrap the excess wire around the pinched middle and ribbon ends. Glue the wings behind the head, above the cording.
