Mason Jar Luminary

I had the pleasure of attending another one of Cathe Holden's workshops 
at her inspiration- filled barn studio in Petaluma, CA.  
The project was a mason jar luminary with a paper house, mossy base, vintage collage elements and a wire and pearl bird's nest.
Here are the class samples.
And some samples of the bird's nests.  SOO cute!
Here is a picture of our kits - Cathe is so precise and generous with the materials - everything we need is included - you don't have to bring so much as a pair of scissors.  
As a graphic designer, she designed some the collage elements to print on 
vintage sticker paper!
Here is the house template all cut out.  I learned how to make these cute houses at Cathe's house luminary workshop last Christmas, you can see HERE.
Here are my bird's nests.  
I found them a little bit messy, but they are so easy to make and look adorable!
Here's the lady herself!
Here is my luminary project completed... from all sides:





Here are some of the other student's work in progress:








Here is a shot of the whole glass gleefully holding up their creations:
Thanks Cathe for another fun filled visit to your magical studio!
