Glow stick jars
- Fill the jar with water
Get a Mason jar and fill it with water. You can use hot water to make the light brighter. However, it will burn out quickly. On the other hand if you pour in cold water, it will last longer.
- Break and shake the glowing sticks
Now get the three glowing sticks and break them. Shake them afterwards so their glowing chemicals are activated. You are required to cut the top of the glowing sticks in order to draw out the ingredients and place them in the jar. Cut the stick with help of a scissor.
- Shake the ingredients
After pouring the ingredients into the jar, place the lid back and shake the ingredients. You will get a glowing fairy jar that will be light on for several hours. -
