We are always looking for ways to beautify our homes on a budget, and if there’s one thing we all love, and buy all the time, it’s Mason Jars!
Stop recycling your old pasta sauce jars, and turn them into art instead!
Here are a few of our favorite ways to beautify Mason Jars on a budget.
- Flower Vases
It’s a classic for a reason! Try finding a few wildflowers on a walk, and put them in a small jar with some fresh, clean water. Guaranteed to brighten any room!
- Toothbrush Holder
This is a fun way to reuse jars, and keep your toothbrushes organized! Paint or tint the jar any color you’d like!
- Planters
Tiny succulents look so adorable in Mason Jars, and you can put them anywhere!! Paint your jars or leave them clear for a more natural look.
- Pencil/Pen Holder
Once again, Mason Jars to the organization rescue! Try painting them yellow for pencils, and multi-colored for markers! Or go for it & get your glitter on!
- PiggyBank
An easy home-made piggy bank! Use as a swear jar, travel fund, or for any secret surprise! Paint it pink with a piggy face, or with a map patter for traveling. Let your imagination run wild!
- Poured Candle
It’s easier than you think to make your own poured candle! We love that you can customize your scent and wax to be EXACTLY what you want!
- Lantern
Use bailing wire to wrap around the mouth of the jar, and make a “handle” on top to hang it. Then, simply put a tea-light inside! Spruce it up with a ribbon on the mouth, or just leave it simple. Either way, it will bring your family a smile.
- Moss Terrarium
Grow your own environment in a Mason Jar! The light that comes through makes it like a mini-greenhouse!
- Potpourri
Get nicely dried herbs and flowers and some essential oil, and make yourself a custom potpourri! Simply lock a pretty handkerchief with the lid holder, or some twine or ribbon. It’s beautiful and custom-tailored to you!
- Beach-in-a-Jar
There’s nothing like having your own little beach scene at home on a cloudy day. Get some crafting sand and shells, and maybe a drink umbrella! Find fun ways to create your own tiny beach scene.
We hope you enjoyed these Mason Jar art ideas!
