Easy DIY craft to share

This craft is thanks to Lauren.  It's amazing so I had to share it even though I haven't done it yet.  It's a new craft with (drum roll please...) EPSOM SALT.  Okay, that was total sarcasm with the drumroll because Epsom Salt crafts are no new surprise anymore. It's everywhere.  The makers are loving on this attention and the world will soon be covered.  We'll probably drive past an Epsom Salt covered car soon. I'll take a pink one please.  

All you need to do it coat your item (in this case it was a Mason Jar, Glade Candle's old holders, and Christmas Ball Ornaments) with Mod Podge or glue, roll the gooey item in the salt, let dry, and spray with three coats of sealer.  Amazing right? You can add color to either to salt or the glue.

We're looking forward to doing this trick to fabric flowers, Easter eggs, and shells for jewelry. 

Here are some pictures of the projects.  I'll snap some with the camera later but for now these cell-phone pics will have to do.
