How to make it
Use a battery tea light so kids can carry it safely.
1Press the leaves
Press leaves in a heavy book for 2 or 3 days so they lie flat.
2Paint on the glue
Brush Mod Podge on a small patch of the jar.
3Stick a leaf
Press a leaf on and brush more Mod Podge over it. It looks white now and dries clear.
4Cover the jar
Keep adding leaves around the jar. Overlap them a little.
5Dry it
Let it dry for 1 hour.
6Finish and light
Wrap twine around the rim and drop in a battery tea light.
Real leaves can crack. Tissue paper leaves look almost the same and never break.
