The items I put in my Mason Jar is a rock, flower which is now dead, soil, dirt, wood chips, tomato, pepper, and also little flowers I picked off the grass. I chose these items because I wanted to make my jar look nice and pretty. Also I picked whatever was around me when I was in the Mar Vista garden. I predict that when I add water the jar will fill up and you will be able to see the objects more. Also the rock will probably hold most objects down because of how heavy it is. I believe that when I add a picture into my jar with water, it will ruin. The colors will separate and the picture will look messy and start to rip. If I could do this again the thing I would do different is to put more insects in my jar and add flowers instead of wood chips. The reason is because it will look better and also have more color everywhere. Also I would try to make the jar have more of a scene then just have things thrown in there messy
