This is cute foil lined Mason jar light is perfect to turn on in a dark room and enjoy the views. (If you have white lights, it would be more of a constellation light jar), but we just had red lights only.

Note: Use during parent supervision and do not use for long hours; turn off after using.

Supplies:

Mason jar
lights
foil
toothpicks

Steps:

Tear a piece of foil long enough to wrap inside your Mason jar.

Lay the foil on a box and using toothpicks, have your kids poke holes.

Once they have finished poking holes, wrap the inside of the Mason jar with the foil.
