Step 2: Mix in a Plastic Cup
For mason jars mix 2 teaspoons of mod podge and 10 drops of your food coloring for each jar
I used a pickle jar so i mixed 4 teaspoons of mod podge and still 10 drops of food coloring.

Step 3: Pour
Pour your awesome mixure into the glass/glasses.
Rotate the glass until every inch on the inside is covered. If the glue doesn't move as quickly add a pinch to a teaspoon of water to the glass and continue to rotate until fully coated.
Once this is done flip it upside down and rest on a paper plate. The extra coloring will leak out. This is good.

Step 4: Cookie Tray
Place a layer of tin foil over the cookie tray. And place the jar - still upside down onto the tray. Place into the oven for 3-4 minutes.
Step 5: Flip
Remove the jar and whip the excess glue off from around the rim.
Place a clean sheet of tin foil over the cookie tray and flip the jar so it is now right side up.
Place back into the oven and bake for 30-60 minutes.
(My pickle jar ended up being 40 minutes)
