Preval's Maker Minute: Valentine's Day Peephole Heart Candle Jar

Press a couple strips of painter’s tape to the glass jar, and draw a heart onto it.

Next, use an exacto knife to score along the lines of your drawing. Carefully remove the tape, leaving the heart shape in place.

Prepare the Preval Sprayer & Spray

To prepare the Preval Sprayer, add 2.5 ounces of chalk paint and 1 oz. of water to the jar. Cap, shake and attach the spray can.

Spray the outside of the candle jar, taking care to not spray the inside. When you’re done, let the paint dry, and then spray a second coat. Also, spray the wooden knob from all angles.

Finishing Touches

When the jar is dry, remove the remaining tape to reveal a clear heart shape. Wipe away any stray paint, caught under the tape, with a damp paper towel.

Use your white paint pen to embellish the jar and wooden knob. Finally, hot glue the knob onto the center of the jar lid.
