This is a simple project, very inexpensive and easy to do.  The goal is to transform a Mason Jar (or any suitable glass or plastic jar) into a dazzling lamp.  The unlighted jar makes an outstanding light catcher if hung in the garden or displayed outdoors on a table or wall, for example.

Glass baubles, or beads (Michael's label them ("decorative accents")
Mason Jar, or other jars made of either glass or plastic.
Christmas lights, 20 lights per string.  Other lights can be used as well, i.e., small lamp bulbs, leds, etc.
Lids to fit the jar.
Glue: I have shown two that I used and can vouch for.  Any epoxy glue would work as well.

I called my wife to see this, and she said, "¡Ay, qué lindo!" (Oh, how cute!). When I explained her how it was made​​, she could not believe it.
