Every few weeks or when my overwhelming love for something needs to be shared… I have what I like to call, For the Love Of. This week I’m crushing on Mason Jars! I’ve always loved them, but this week they’ve been glaring at me. I think it’s because we’ve been having beautiful Spring like weather for the last few weeks here in So. Cal. and my brain is already turning towards Spring/Summer décor.
Let’s check out some of the beauties I found… mostly with the help of my BFF, Pinterest.
These are the mason jar candle holders I made a few years back. You can click the photo to get to the tutorial.

Hi Friends & thank you bunches for visiting! :-)
I am so grateful for each and every one of you who visit me, inspires me, and have left me sweet comments letting me know that I've inspired you too. You can contact me here .
I am a lover now! What beautiful uses for a common jar. I am certainly going to try at least one of them. Thanks. Wanda
I love them! I did a few homemade Christmas presents in them, including bath salts and baked goods! Details on my blog if interested in the projects! I saw a case of them for sale at the grocery store the other day, I should go back and get them!
I’m a lover of mason jars, too. I have plenty left over from canning and you’ve provided some great ideas. I especially like that herb garden and plan to show it to hubby!
I love mason jars too! As you have shown, they are just so versatile, not to mention cute!
Umm… that might be the most amazing thing I’ve seen today. I’m in love with the vases, the chalkboard labels, and the claim a cups for a party. And pinterest….omg. New love, right there!
Great post!
This post came at the PERFECT time. I am on the hunt for creative mason jar storage! Any idea where to get the jars themselves — on the cheap? Love your blog!
Ooooh, I just pinned all of them! Thanks for sharing these; I am definitely going to be using these wonderful ideas. Thanks for hosting PoPP!

I really love Mason Jars too. These are some great ideas I haven’t seen before, esp. the herb garden. That one is fantastic!
Love this post. I think that Mason Jars are the most versitile object ever created. You may think I am crazy, but my husband gave me a case of Mason Jars for Christmas. It was kind of a joke, but really not. If you have ever watched the Andy Griffeth Show the idea came from the show when Andy gives Aunt Bea jars for her birthday. Aunt Bea wasn’t happy with them, but I was tickled to death. I love them!
I’ve been in love with mason jars lately too. I don’t have any, but I keep thinking of reasons to get some! I love all of the images you posted!
I LOVE mason jars too and am always looking for new ways to use them. Thanks for the ideas and keep them coming! I’ve been trying to figure out how to do the mason jar light fixture since seeing it in PB. Please post if you know!
Another use for mason jars is to make homemade solar powered sun jars. you can take the solar panel portion of a solar pathway light, and affix the band of a mason jar to it (I use super glue, you can probably use a hot glue gun as well). After it dries, you can put the top on a mason jar. For the actual jar itself, there are a variety of things you can do. My first projects involved using frosted spray paint, which gives a soft glow to them. You can also put in inserts to make different colors.
Here is my version of making them: http://snipsly.com/2010/07/15/my-take-on-the-sun-jar/
Is it closed?
No, it’s ajar…
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
I LOVE THE JAR IDEAS!!
I have a love of all things jar related.
I’m working on a mason jar chandlier for my mom now.. I can’t wait to show her.
I have been secretly storing all of our mason jars. I love using them in the summer with a cool cotton print tied around them. Love your ideas to work them into doing other crafts!

Love, love, love mason jars!!!
I have loved Mason jars since I was a little girl. The blue ones are my favorites. There’s nothing prettier than a jar full of wildflowers, or more refreshing than a quart-sized jar of iced tea. Love these ideas, especially the “claim yours” party glasses.
Thanks so much for the love for our mason jar herb garden – it’s been one of our most popular DIY’s in history, and perfect for summer! xx
Also great for storing weed.
I just keep dry foods in mine, in our house in France because we’re only there 3 or 4 times a year. Oh and I make sloe/damson gin in them, cherry brandy and raspberry/rhubarb vodka.
Great idea to use mason jars.Thanks!!
