What You Will Need

  • Pint mason jars
  • Burlap ribbon
  • Chalk paint
  • Paintbrush
  • Scissors
  • Twine
  • Hot glue and a glue gun
  • Letter stencil
  • Stencil brush
  • Flowers

Instructions

  • Paint each of the mason jars. Be sure to clean them well before painting. I like to use rubbing alcohol on the surface and allow it to dry before painting. Paint as many jars as you need for this project in whatever colors you like. I love chalk paint for this as one coat does the job!
  • While your jars are drying, cut your burlap ribbon to 11 1/2 inch lengths. You will need as many ribbons as letters in your design.
  • Stencil each ribbon with the letter of your choice. Be sure to protect your work surface and use a stencil brush for the best results. I am using a two layer stencil but you can choose a simpler letter if you would like. You can also use HTV and your Cricut machine for this step instead.
  • Once your ribbon and jars are dry, wrap each jar with one ribbon and hot glue in the back to secure into place.
  • Wrap twine around the top of each jar and tie in a knot. I also like to fray the ends of my twine but this is optional.
  • Add flowers to complete your fall mason jars.
