Get into the holiday spirit

Show off your creative flair by turning your mason jars into miniature snow globes. It’s a fun crafting project for the kids and they’ll make great gifts too! Who doesn’t love a thoughtful DIY gift?

From tea lights in hot summer garden parties to Christmas décor in the winter, mason jars can be decorated for all seasons!

For a simple snow globe, empty the Mason jar and fill it with fake snow, plastic ornaments and lots of glitter. Glue toy mistletoe on top of the lid and screw it back on—there you have it, your very own miniature white Christmas.

Tea lights bring a touch of mystical magic to any garden party! Place them in spare mason jars and hang the jars from your tree branches using twine — a simple and cheap way to add flair to your birthday or BBQ party.

A stunning centerpiece

Goodbye expensive centerpieces and hello homemade flower arrangements. Fill your Mason jars with water, floating candles and some pebbles — perfect centerpieces for summer parties and small scale weddings. Paint the jars from the outside for a more dramatic effect.

You can even showcase a lovely windowsill display with wildflowers lined up in empty Mason jars. Fill them up with posies and lace them beautifully with ribbons — another gorgeous tea party idea.
