DIY decorative jars

Posted on June 14, 2017February 15, 2019 by bestiesnotepad

Hello all,
Ever felt the need to reuse those old jars in the kitchen in a different way or to store the cotton balls, brushes etc in your dressing in a more sophisticated, fun way?!
Well, this post at bestiesnotepad focuses on do-it-yourself decorative jars/boxes which can be made very easily at home in your choice of colors, accessories using simple things from our daily life.

 

Things you will need

Things you need

  • Glass Jar/wooden box
  • Wool
  • White Glue
  • scissors
  • bows, ribbons for decoration

Method

  1. Take the wooden box/jar and add some glue using a brush. I suggest painting one fourth first as glue dries fast.20170508_204858
  2. Starting with one end, start pasting wool real tight around the edges or round and round in a jar.
  3. End in the same side you started. This one is a bit tricky as the wool might come off of the edge, so have to paste the end strongly.
  4. Add the bow/ribbon/lace using a double tape and voila! you have your decorated jar.Wooden box

 

Love,

V|XOXO

    Such a pretty DIY project 🙂 You can also use jute string to make the mason jar look more rustic.

    I could have never thought of such a beautiful reuse for a simple jar sitting idle on my kitchen slab. I am pleasantly wowed.

    Great idea, considering I have many jars and unused boxes around the house and in the garage. I always figure I could use them for something besides junk. Thanks for sharing some of your ideas.
