1. Flower Box
Painted mason jars are the easiest way to add flowers
and a pop of color to your living space. All you need is a can of spray paint
and your good. If you're feeling really crafty try making your own window box
for them to go in.

3. Striped Vases
These vases will add elegance to any room. Use any color to
make your beautiful flowers stand out. How to: Using painters tape, tape around
the part of the jar that you don't want exposed and with the spray paint of
choice... spray away.
4. Glitter Lamp
Who couldn't use a little more sparkle in their lives?
This might look hard but it's so simple! How to: Using Elmer's Glue
paint it all on the outside of the jar. In a separate dish add a layer of
glitter. Then roll your mason jar in the glitter until fully covered. Sprinkle
more glitter on any empty spots and let dry. When dry you can add a candle or a
battery powered light. Tutorial for making glitter jars.
