8. Mason Jar Lamps
These mason jar lamps are perfect for a small side table or fireplace mantel! They wouldn’t put off much light, but they could definitely add warmth and character to just about any room. You can buy them on Etsy or easily make your own. Just remember, it’s important to make sure you create a hole either in the jar somewhere or in the lid so that the heat can escape when the light is on.
9. Mason Jar Solar Lights Craft
These DIY solar lights are easier than you might think, and so much better than the ones you can buy at a hardware store! They are perfect for a patio, and can obviously be easily moved around like a lamp to suit your needs. Check out the full tutorial and more pictures for these Mason Jar Solar Lights over at Today’s Creative Life.
10. Mason Jar Mini Sewing Kit
Store all of your small sewing supplies inside of a jar and use the top as a pin cushion! Just leave it to Martha Stewart to come up with this beauty.
11. Mason Jar Terrarium
Mason jars are perfect for growing herbs and other small plants, especially in a sunny kitchen window, but if you don’t have the light needed and love the way they look, don’t be afraid to go fake! Artificial succulents these days actually look like the real thing. Check out the instructions for this project over at Hometalk.
12. Mason Jar Beach Keepsake
Use a mason jar to display items from a recent beach vacation! You could even place a photo from the trip on the inside as a backdrop. I did this last year and the jar ended up full of bugs! It might be a good idea to clean and air out your shells before sealing them in the jar. Hehe. Check out the full details for this project here. It’s a great mason jar craft to make with your kids.
13. Mason Jar Desk Organizer
Stack and glue jars, and then use them to store your office or craft supplies. How clever and cute is this!? I like this idea for a shelf over a desk, so that your supplies are easy to grab. Check out the instructions over at It’s Overflowing.
