Mason Jar DIY!

So lately I have more than a million ideas on how I want to re-decorate my room. Changing my linens and hanging new pictures are only the start. I needed to think of a way to add some more color and function to my life. This fall Mason jars have been on the top of my DIY list of things to, well, do my self.

I am a huge fan of finding things around the house and re-purposing it giving it a new look or use. Now I didn’t just have mason jars hanging around house, luckily for me my Mom bought a case if them to better dish out her morning green smoothie (gives you so much energy but blech) .

Anyway, being a huge fan of clustered decorative pieces sitting on my side table or dresser I decided to use a jar to hold my toothbrushes. Because the jars are clear they easily blend in and add a little bit of “rusticness” to the mix (yes I made that word up).

Currently, I'm in the middle of an apartment hunt, so I cant wait to do more things with these jars. A couple coats of spray paint or wall paper on the inside can really change the look and tone of the jar making it work in any space!

Soooooo my mason jar do to list, might as well make a list of DIY’s I want to try when I move.

Bathroom storage containers for cotton balls, sponges, and q-tips I’d leave these ones clear, I have a thing for creams, blacks, and whites in my bathroom for some reason. Gives off a balanced and calming feeling.

"> Hang some jars under my visible kitchen cabinets I’d glue the lids to the bottom of the cupboard so the Jar can easily screw off. Great solution for little to no counter space. " SO Convenient

Winter is coming and I would love to see candle holders that are just as dressed for the weather as I am! Lol, cheesy but cute. Any old mit or knit wear can be turned in to a cozy for a mason jar candle holder. An added Bonus, the jars make perfect candle making containers as well.

Grow an inside herb garden! MMMMMmmm herbs ;). Anyhoo, if I can't keep a plant that stays inside the house in a tiny glass jar alive then theres no hope. I can't wait to try this one out, has to be one of my favourites, who doesn't want home grown thyme? I'm a farm girl at heart.

Hope these ideas were helpful!
