Spaghetti Turned Decoration

Happy Thanksgiving week!  Can you believe that, in a few short days, we'll be sitting down to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner?!  Time is certainly flying by this year.

I mentioned last week that, this year, I would be hosting Thanksgiving for the first time ever.  It is a small crowd {just us and my parents} so I haven't really done much decoration wise.  I was sitting in the dining room though and decided it needed just a little something extra besides our table decorations.

I started with some pasta sauce jars...Barilla to be exact.

After removing the labels and sending them through the dishwasher, I measured my scrapbook paper to fit around them.

I cut all the strips of scrapbook paper and taped them around the jars.

Then, I filled each jar with this gorgeous natural material I found at a little store during our anniversary weekend away.

Nothing like a quick and super cheap project to start off the week :)
