Father’s Day Mason Jars

Make some Father’s Day mason jars for Dad this year.  I love a gift idea that the kids can help make.  These Father’s Day mason jars are simple enough for even the smallest of children to join in the crafting.  This is a part of Craft Lightning Father’s Day where we are posting Father’s Day craft ideas that take 15 minutes or less all week.  Scroll to the bottom of this post to see today’s ideas.  Missed some of the fun this week?  See the other ideas from this week on day 1 and day 2.

Supplies needed to make your own Father’s Day mason jars:

• Green Ball mason jars
• Stiff self-adhesive felt sheets
• 3-dimensional fabric paint (like Puffy paint, Beads in a bottle, and Tulip Slick Paints)
• Scissors

Trim the felt sheets into “tie” shapes.  Let the kids pick the colors.  This is a great craft for any felt scraps that you have laying around.  We like stiff felt for this project.  The version that is self adhesive really makes this project simple.

Use a variety of 3 dimensional fabric paints to decorate your ties.  Set aside to dry.  This is where you really get the kids involved.  Let them decorate the ties in any way they choose.

Your ties will probably need to dry overnight.  Then you will need to add to your mason jars.  I used the adhesive on the back of the felt sheets.  You can also use glue to adhere.

Wrap these Father’s Day mason jars up and give to Dad this year.  They will look great on his desk to hold pens, pencils, and more.

Add these Father’s Day mason jars to your must make list this year.  Pick up your supplies and let the kids get to work adding their own special touch to this fun craft idea.
