As long as you have a bottle of your choice of Mod Podge and a glue gun, you’re set to go. For wrapping, you can use yarn, string, thread, ribbon, or anything else you have that may be wrap-able.
1. Ground the End of the Wrapper: You’ll need to ground the end of the twine with a dot of hot glue. Make sure that it’s not interfering with the base of the jar (so it will sit flat on your table).
2. Begin wrapping the twine as tightly as you like, and globbing a fair amount of Mod Podge on a few rows at a time as your work toward the neck of the jar.
3. Keep going, wrapping and smooshing the twine downward, and globbing the Mod Podge on. Don’t worry if you feel like you’re obscuring the twine, because it will dry clear.
4. Clip the excess twine when you’re finished wrapping, and secure the end with another small dot of hot glue. Then, cover the entire jar with a liberal coat of Mod Podge. I wiped it onto the rim of the jar in order to have a slightly matte finish.
I love it! You could do one with a thick burlap ribbon too!
Such a simple, but adorable project! Thanks for sharing!
Look how teeny he was! Why do they grow up so fast?!?
Oh how sweet. I love those first laughs. My son laughed like that at our dog for the first belly laugh. That was 16 years ago.
These kinds of runs look like such a blast to me. Great pics too!
Oh man! Too cute!! Thanks for the laugh first thing in the morning!
It was easy to do in stages, too, since I have a raging toddler roaming the house!
Yeah, the burlap would be nice. I have an extra jar, so I’ll give it a stab!
Cute! So simple!
I remember my oldest daughters first laugh, I was playing fighting with her daddy and I hit him with a pack of baby wipes and she just busted up laughing the most sweetest thing ever!
That looks like so much fun! You are a bunch of dirty girls. lol
This looks like a blast! I’m doing Couch to 5K and planning on the Color Run in October.

I have always wanted to do a mud run. Looks like you had a ball! And for a good cause.
I love that you have so much fun when you run!
You clearly put your heart into that! You totally rock with your dirty self!
Now that’s something you don’t see every day. I bet you girls had a blast. Will you be doing that again next year? So fun!@!
WOW, I bet you were getting mud out for days! what a fun memory
FUN! I love bakers twine and this thicker twine with the stripe reminds me of it! cute!
You were smart to wear water shoes! I ran a mud run 5K and there was so much mud on my shoes I had to toss them – in the GIANT pile along with all the other people that ditched their muddy running shoes.
Looks like you all had a great time. I want to do a race with my friends, it looks like it would be so much fun.
That looks like so much fun! Love the pictures with you and your friends!
Oh that is so so sweet. I love baby laughs and yes it totally makes me want another.
