Fake depression glass

I love depression glass.  I found out how to make it on Pinterest.   My mother-in-law had these jars in her garage wrapped in newspapers from 1972!!  I think it was time to use them!   Just add food coloring to slightly watered down glue (or Mod Podge) and pour into jars, turning them to cover the jar. Drain upside down for about 10 minutes on wax paper.   Put them into the oven, 170 degrees, for 20+ minutes as they turn clear.  Leave in the oven until cool.  You may not use as a vase for real flowers (water will destroy it).  I put "puffs" of silk hydrangeas in my finished product.
