I then covered both the jar and lid with paperclay. It really looked plain but that's when I started workin' it :
This was just too plain for me so I took the lid and made a rose out of the paperclay and put in the center. I then fashioned rosebuds and placed around the large rose and added a few leaves for good measure.
Now things got to be a lot of fun. I started out by painting my rose and buds a light pink and then painted the jar the same pink. I painted my leaves green and highlighted the rose and buds with glitter. I also glittered around the edge of the lid. Lid now finished! I cut out a victorian picture and Modge Podged it to the jar. I then sealed the jar and glued off white rick-rack around the picture and added a little butterfly to the side of the picture.
I think it all turned out just beautifully don't you? Now to just fill the jar with some lovely bath salts and give to a good friend!

Yes, I do think it turned out just beautifully. I especially like how you did the roses on the lid.
I bought myself some PaperClay, but still have to break open the pack.
Your projects are definitely whetting my appetite.
Wow, Barbara.
I had no idea Paperclay could be used in a project like this.
Absolutely beautiful. Great job!
