In this previous post, I told you about my love affair with mason jars. Well, I’m still having the affair, and I said I would post about all the great things a mason jar can do, so here we go!
Here is a super cute idea for a Halloween craft using mason jars. I have not made them yet, but I know the minute my daughters see them they will beg me to make them. I found them here at Not So Idle Hands and they make me love my jars even more!
Crafts…I wouldn’t say I am a person who likes making crafts. I think it is my impatience. I like the idea of the craft, but I just want it to be done and do not really enjoy the process. Still, I buckle down occasionally and just do it, mostly because I have 3 very crafty girls so it is a way to spend time with them, and I have found that being crafty is a frugal way to decorate my home, so that is also motivating.
These little light up monster jars get me a bit excited because I love anything that creates atmosphere, and I know these will. Maybe I can just start simple and make three of them representing my own three lovely, little monsters. I think these would be fun in my sunroom at night, creating a spooky fun glow!
