Freehand or pattern
Text on notes can be written by hand. There is another option: download beautiful backgrounds from the Internet and print everything pleasant that you want to convey to your loved one or friend. You can think of words yourself. And you can use ready-made templates and just print them, and then cut them. This, of course, is worse than coming up with it yourself. But if there is absolutely no imagination, then better than nothing.

Newlyweds can issue two such containers. They will be pleasantly surprised that the gift was not bought at the store, but jars with wishes were made with their own hands. Photos of the decor for the bride and groom can be seen on the Internet. For example, draw two pigeons, horses, swans on the tank. All of them are a symbol of marital fidelity. Put notes with wishes from you and your family inside. The second option: guests throw a note with wishes in a festively decorated capacity during the celebration itself.
And, of course, such a gift can give the bride to the groom. Subsequently, it will become a family value, since a jar with wishes is made with your own hands. “100 Reasons Why I Love You” is a spiritual gift that a newly-made husband will re-read in moments of joy or small disagreements.
Memories of the sea
Let us dwell on the marine style in more detail. After all, it can be used as a decor. In addition, in such a jar it will be possible to attach a lot of shells and other gifts of Neptune that you brought from your vacation.
For decor you will need:
- Bank.
- White paint (suitable emulsion).
- Acrylic putty.
- Alcohol.
- Two types of glue: PVA and Crystal.
- Napkin with a pattern in a marine style.
- Varnish for decorative work: transparent.
- Printer paper (preferably color).
- Brush (synthetic).
- Marine decor.
- Scissors.
Manipulations are performed in the following sequence:
- First of all, the bank needs to be degreased. For this, alcohol or acetone is suitable. You can also use an alcohol wipe.
- Take a napkin. Separate the top ball with a picture. We smear part of the container with PVA glue. We apply the top layer of the napkin with the pattern inward.
- We turn to creating the effect of the seabed. To do this, we select small pebbles, shells, sand. To create a flicker effect, you can mix it with white sparkles. Everything on our seabed needs to be fixed. To do this, fill all objects with transparent varnish.
- In the place where the napkin is, you need to prime the jar with white paint. Half of the container will remain transparent, the second part will remain white. Wait for it to dry.
- When the paint hardens, apply a thick layer of putty on it. Before it has dried, lay out the decor on it: pebbles, shells, rhinestones.
- Coarse large decor should be combined with a transparent part of the can. To create a smooth transition, we use sand, small and broken shells.
