at my thrift stores at a fraction of the price all the time. You can also find them at your local discount store. 
I am doing this one live with Carolina from 30 Minute Crafts. Join us below as we craft live together from opposite ends of the United States. Pretty cool right? Learn how to make my watermelon mason jar as well as a craft from Carolina all in under 10 minutes.
Don’t you love those videos? You can see even more thrift store challenge fun this week over on Crafty Hangouts. How about a few close ups of my finished mason jar?
You can see how the glass paint tints the mason jar but you can still see through to the inside. Add flowers for a vase, candles for a centerpiece, or maybe even add something to the inside for a gift. Enjoy my watermelon mason jar craft this summer and all year round.

I’m trying to find the DecoArt crystal glass enamel with no luck.
Dorothy says
What is the name of the sheer paint you’re using, please and where might I buy it? I couldn’t hear what you were saying very well.
Angie Holden says
Sure Dee! Try the Crystal Gloss Enamels from Decoart. Here is the link: http://www.decoart.com/glasspaint/gloss-enamels#transparent
Gail Will says
Could you please send me instructions on how to do the watermelon mason ball? I couldn’t hear you and the camera was ALWAYS on your face so we could really see what you were doing. Thanks
Gail Will says
That should be “we COULDN’T really see what you were doing.
Angie Holden says
Sure Gail! Just paint the red on first leaving a bit at the bottom. Allow to dry a few minutes. Paint the green on in the area you left. Then add on black dots with the writer. Look for Americana Crystal Gloss Enamels for that translucent look. The writer is also Americana and will come in a bottle with a writing tip and say “3D”.
