Valentine’s Day Mason Jar Craft
- Author: Vinessa Rae
Description
My kiddos were really sad to see the Christmas decorations go this year. To keep the magic and excitement alive we decided to decorate for Valentine’s Day. My dilemma with keeping the decorating going is that I am not looking to spend a bunch of dough on new decor. So we’re using some items we already have and purchased just a few extra materials (that can surely be used for other projects).
We settled on a pastel Valentines color pallet for the mason jars that way they can be used as spring decor too by adding some fresh bright ribbon and switching up the flowers to spring blooms. Although baby’s breath is always a nice touch. Let me know if you try this, I love to see your projects! Tag me on IG @vinessarae

start out with clean and dry mason jars
apply 1 – 2 coats of pain to the mason jar using a foam brush or paint brush
