DIY Mason Jar/Ball Jar Solar Light

Hello Crafty Friends!
Today is my day to post over at Lovebug Creation!
Today I am sharing something a little different!
Usually I share only my papercrafting projects, but I want to start doing some more DIY post!

I made this one for my Dad, it will be 4 years in July since he has been gone, I miss him dearly. Me and my Dad were very close and we both love "junk" so this old Ball Jar was the perfect choice for my light!






Product used for this project:
Lovebug Creations:
My Creative Time:
May Arts:
Memento Ink:
Tuxedo Black
Cardstock
Mason Jar
Solar Light (cheap at Walmart)
Lid (I ordered mine online, if I don't have a cut out 
you will need to cut one)

There are several ways to attach the light to the lid, for this one I tried the double sided tape, that was a struggle for me, it was hard to move and adjust. Next one I am going to try to glue light right to the lid, although no sight suggested that I don't see why it won't work, just make sure to avoid the center where the solar panel is! :) 

Thanks for looking!
Kristi♥
