Cutting the Picket Fence Down to Size

My picket fence had too many slats on it. I made mine with six slats across it. If yours is too big also just cut it down to size as closely as possible with your jigsaw.

Hot Glue the Candles

Now hot glue your candles in the mason jars, one in each. If you can't fit your hands all the way in the mason jar then what I did was put glue on the candle and then drop it in the mason jar.

Tie the Mason Jars

Th next step is to tie the mason jars to the picket fence. I just tried to space my mason jars out as best as I could. Just make sure that you have some mason jars in every area and it will look great. Wrap the twine around the jars and the boards 3 or 4 times at least. I even put a little bit of hot glue under the mason jars just to make sure it wouldn't fall.
