Reduce Reuse Recycle: Mason Glass Jars!

Unknown 05:14 Add Comment Edit

Recently I had an engagement Party and wanted ideas for the cheapest way possible to decorate the tables, everything I stumbled across cost a fortune and when divided between 30 tables, the cost soon escalated beyond my control, I wanted a shabby Chic Vintage feel to my party so searched high and low, scouring charity shops, wholesale stores and finally resorted to Ebay, without any luck... then I stumbled across a cute Blog post about reusing materials and everyday Items and being the cheap-skate I am I thought fantastic and read ahead! The one that really caught my eye was the well known and well used 'Mason' Jar! Now I don't know anybody who hasn't used or stumbled across one of these stashed away, possibly for a number of years, in the crevices of their kitchen cupboards, and what a fantastic little multi purpose Jar this turned out to be!

Now if you don't have 30 or so mason jars stashed away somewhere I strongly recommend cleaning and sprucing up these little beauties and storing them as you use them within your home, they can be used for so many different things, which include glasses to drink out at your family BBQ to decretive purposes, or in my case Table Centre pieces, I spent a day cleaning out and emptying a-load of these jars which I purchased for 20p each which included a lovely smelling curry sauce from Morrisons, and I loved the Final result; I filled them with sand, Tied a ribbon of Lace around the jar then added some Faux Flowers (Classy I know) And they looked amazing!

So without further Ado heres some fantastic Ideas for your left over Mason Jars!
