Jar Cloche

I loved making these, started with an ironstone plate and a glass pickle jar!


I added a large wood spool to the top (bottom) of the jar with E6000 glue.
I made a zipper ball, by winding a metal zipper around a styrofoam ball.
Add a part of an old book, vintage photo and a wood letter. Oh and some
shredded book pages to the outside.

What you don't see is the sjpping tape I used to keep the jar in place while traveling
to the antique mall and the scotch tape to hold the book pages, from flying all over the place.



The second one is a smaller one from a marcharina cherry jar.
door knob on top and some other porceline piece.
I side is a clock set on a tin jello mold, old photo and a quilt square.
