How sweet would this tote and jars be for an office helper, fresh flowers, beside the telephone, or culterly for a picnic?



My Bride Idea (please pin from the source)

Grouped jars with floating candles and raffia make a gorgeously simple centrepiece.

How clever is it to use the inside of a canner and canning jars for a chandelier?

These adorably detailed waterless snow globes are perfect for a wintery window sill.

Why stick with just blue mason jars when you can create a rainbow? Great DIY post with mod podge and food colour technique.


Not Just A Housewife (please pin from the source)

A mason jar wall planter can be anywhere and hold nearly anything. Imagine a fragrant herb garden or blooming fresh flowers as well.


Fresh snowdrops find a new home in a tiny mason styled jar.

Tip: wrap stems with an elastic then tie with twine, allowing the excess to float.

By (me!)


An vintage sewing machine drawer sets the stage for this little group of fresh flowers. With the glass having broken out of the washboard, it became the perfect backdrop that allowed light to shine through the jars.

By (me!)


Sigh... aren't mason jars the coolest things?

    Hi Donna! First, thank you for featuring my dining room with the farm board table runner on Facebook last week and as an SNS Rock Star. I'm honored. Second, I have a TON of mason jars but of course, don't have any photos and haven't really done anything creative with them ... yet. Gonna check out some of these links for ideas. Thanks for hosting!

    Donna I use my blue Ball jars in a canning rack on my table. In the center I have a vintage red plaid Thermos and I have red handle Bakelite silverware in the jars. In my sewing room I have the blue Ball jars in the window with buttons and vintage lace in them. A lot of the blue jars were my grandmothers.

    Oops I forgot to tell you I have red flowers in the vintage red Thermos. The blue jars surround the red Thermos.

      Hey Sheila! No worries about the errors, they happen. :) Everyone has the ability to delete their own linkups - if you see a little red x beside yours, simply click it. But thanks for letting me know.

    Hi,
    I am sent you an email about my Mason Jar Chandelier image. Please link my image to here:
    http://www.etsy.com/listing/50769482/antique-lights-mason-jar-chandelier-6
    Please also replace the image with the one I emailed, that has my shop name. My images get pinned on Pinterest without linking back to me, and soon they are lost to everyone's DIY boards.
