Mason Jar Ideas to Hippify your Home

The molded jars originally made to preserve food are the most celebrated craft materials these days. If you don’t have an idea what these jars are, think of mustaches and barn weddings. You’ll see them there with candles inside them or either hanging, flowers inside them, on poles along the aisles.

Finally, you get it! Mason jars. Don’t you know you can do lots of things with mason jars? They make great home decors. Here are examples.



Chandeliers are elegant and... expensive! If you want an affordable one which matches the style and country sophistication of usual chandeliers, then it’s time for some DIY mason jar chandelier. This would be perfect for cottage-like homes.



If you’re fond of creating your own meals, then surely, you need a mini-herb garden near your kitchen. Plant cilantro, rosemary, oregano or any of your favorite herb inside a mason jar. Get a plank and attach the jars there. Attach a chalkboard name to make it more attractive.




For your hipster wedding, you can insert photos inside the jars and turn them upside down. Viola -- instant picture frames.




Flower Vases


Love flowers? Then, you can have a mini collage of fresh flowers on your walls every day. Latch the mason jars on square wood planks. Place your cut flowers inside the jars. You’re done. The nice thing about this idea is you can do multiple of these and arrange them into a pattern.



Mason jars will delight you the whole year round! On Halloween, you can paint spooky faces on them and place Trick or Treat candies inside.




On the 4th of July, you can spray paint red, white and blue and add some stars. You got yourself an instant patriotic charm which you could hang on your fence.



And of course, you can use them for your Christmas DIYs. You could turn them into a jar “snow ball”. Place a little tree and add a little white powder for the snowy effect. It’ll be a homey Christmas with these mason jar Christmas decors.


On special occasions, you can transform these jars into adorable retro drinks. Add a playful straw. Pour a colorful drink and you’re ready to party.




The great thing about mason jars is that they’re not just there for pure decoration and styling. Then can provide both function and style. Take this bathroom essentials holder for example. This is a smart way to hold cotton balls and cotton buds.



Or glam them up by painting them silver and make them hold your makeup brushes.



They can also be used to hold food like pasta, corn kernels and pretzels. They lock in tight so you are sure that your dry food stays fresh.






And contain your liquid hand soap or body wash.





And, hey, you can even turn a mason jar into a bird feeder.


There are lots of things you can do with mason jars. Just be creative and have fun!
