When thinking of something cute and thoughtful to get my Mom, I always choose making something myself. And as someone who absolutely loves to have fresh flowers in the house, as does my mom, I thought why not make her something special to put her flowers in? Not only that, but who doesn’t just love mason jars? For like everything ever?
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
STEPS
1. Paint the jar with a sponge brush and put one full coat of paint. Let dry for 30-45 minutes, and add another coat. Do about 4 or 5 coats total and leave to dry. Once it’s dry you could add two coats of mod podge or leave as is. I really loved the way the jar looked with just the paint in a matte finish so I kept it this way for this time! I wrapped the top with a sparkly gold ribbon and tied it at the back.
2. Add a little chalk board heart or some sort of extra added touch! I got some yellow daisies to go inside because I absolutely love these two colours together! You could do this in so many different colours (like your mom’s favourite!) I think doing a couple different colours in different size jars and a variety of types of flowers would be lovely too.
This is a great little gift to make Mom! It can go great with a new sweater, or a necklace or perhaps some new gardening tools! But, what it comes down to is that it’s the most special gift she will get because YOU made it for her.
