Natural Mason Jar Flower Vase
Mason jar vases are so darling for flowers! Decorate a jar with a length of natural cotton and other rustic, floral embellishments. Twine is your friend with this beautiful country craft, and with double-sided adhesive this project comes together in just minutes. Choose your favorite patterned paper to make a heart to adhere to the vase. The pop of color with floral paper is a lovely touch, but you can also choose a wood button or similarly rustic embellishment to complement the rest of the elements. This is a fantastic centerpiece for spring.

Recycling and Decorating Jars
-
Start by cutting a strip of cotton (don’t worry if it needs ironing – adds to the natural look!) Apply two lines of Crafty Power Tape.
-
Easy to remove the backing from this tape and wrap around the jar, it affixes perfectly.
-
To adhere the textured ribbon, select Extreme Double-Sided Tape, 1/4″ Permanent. This is extremely tacky and ideal for so many surfaces.
-
For an additional decoration piece, choose a mini wooden heart and to keep it in place using 3D Foam Square, White Regular. Perfect!
-
To decorate a second jar, again use cotton and this time die cut a heart affixed with MyStik® Permanent Strips. You can decorate as little or as much as you wish; it’s fun to put your personal stamp on a plain jar.
-
The finished jars with some flowers from the garden.

Perhaps place them on garden tables if you are having a barbecue or on your kitchen window sill to bring the garden into your home.
