 Do you love Mason Jars? I know my sister Brielle does! Continue reading this post to find mason jar crafts for every season and for how to make your very own Jingle Bell Jar for Christmas. |  |
 The cinnamon sticks are perfect for Fall. | The jars from "The Inspired Room" blog always have a filler in them and always have a small votive. Always the same, yet always versatile. Most of the time she just uses Epsom salt as filler. It looks like a candle sitting in snow in the winter, and a candle in the sand in the summer. Use your imagination. |  This vintage key is a great touch for Christmas and with the right surroundings, it could be used all year-round. |
"Yes, you can branch out and use small rocks or candy or cranberries instead of Epsom Salt as a filler. Those are approved and fail proof variations".
How to make a Jingle Bell JarFollow all of the instructions for a regular Mason Jar Candle, except wrap the mouth of the jar with jute twine strung with a few jingle bells. If you are a perfectionist, glue the twine down in perfect rows. Otherwise, go for my more unintentionally lazy haphazard look. If you want to really knock yourself out, you can stick some snowflake brads (show in the top photo, found at the craft or scrapbooking store) in the twine and spray with glitter. |  |
More to do with Mason Jars...
 This is definitely a must-do DIY for me this Christmas |  Just add ornaments - the colours can be changed to match any decor style. |  I love the pine cones and lace. The snow effect is a nice wintery touch! |
Twine Wrapped Jar- How to Materials
 I like the base but not the lid. I imagine this with white flowers coming out the top, set on a mantle or side table. |  This looks pretty for spring or summer but I would prefer to use the twine for Fall and Winter decor with more festive (dark red, orange) or white flowers such as Hydrangeas Glue twine onto mason jar by applying Liquid Fusion and wrapping twine around. Take care to keep each wrapped round butted-up against the one above, so there aren't any gaps. Once jar is covered, snip off; let dry.  Apply Liquid Fusion around perimeter of jar lid. Smooth piece of decorative ribbon over glue. Cut excess. Let dry. |
And finally, some ideas for next Fall
