Such jars can be made to decorate the table or put on a shelf. For them you will need the cans themselves, acrylic paint of several pastel colors and paper "shavings" (filler for wrapping gifts, you can buy in a flower shop, gifts or make it yourself by cutting colored paper into thin strips). First, we paint each jar in its own color and let the paint dry. Then apply the patterns, dry again. Add weed - done!
