In reply to Janette Snider. Great tip Janette! So glad using waxed paper turned out to be such a great way to help the leaves lay flat on the mason jar. Thank you for sharing your success with us!

A hint that I found and used if your leaves do not want to lay flat or adhere flatly to jar. I took wax paper and put around my jar and taped it down. Let it set for about 30 minutes. Took it carefully off of the leaves and turkey body! Amazingly it stayed flat. Let dry as normal!! Worked great!

In reply to Sharon MacDonald. Hi Sharon, I hear you and completely understand your frustration. It takes time and patience. Gluing leaves on a jar is a process of soaking them with glue and continuing to come back throughout the day to press them down as best as you can. But once the glue is dry, the leaves often calm down and lay a lot flatter. I hope that you stuck with it and found that to be true as well. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Happy Crafting!

I was so hopeful, but am very frustrated. My freshly gathered, supple leaves still have undulations and curves. I cannot get them to lie flat on the jar.

In reply to Mobile Mall. Great ideas. I really love what's on here, but the pop up ads make it virtually unusable, especially if you're trying to look at the site on your phone.

Heyy Nell,
Great work.
I was aware of the leaves and mason jar decorations.
But that little bird in the middle is the show stopper.

Keep posting such tiny miny additionals. will try them all.
All the best…
