Stained Glass Jars!

Hello!
Here is my first crafty post woooo!

I know eveyone has seen the stained glass jars on Pinterest. I went to Michaels, and while looking for Mod Podge to stain my jars, I found THIS:
Tinted Mod Podge!
Whattt?! No guess work in mixing paint to tint the jars?! I am all in. SO I coated the inside of the jars I was going to use. The sat them upside down. I HAD TO USE A LOT OF THE MOD PODGE TO GET THE INSIDE OF THE JAR PAINTED.

THEN I let the jars sit upside down for an hour. After an hour, I covered a cookie sheet in foil, and put the jars on it. 
I put the jars open side up, in the oven on 275 for 45 minutes. 
When their time was up, I took them out, and let them cool. 

After the jars were cool, I had some bubbles in the bottom, I imagine there was too much paint. BUT my jars still look awesome. SO I filled them with glass marbles, and flowers. Here is my finished product:

I love them, I think they are perfect for what I wanted, and I am burning more candles to make more jars. 
Until next time!
