Back-to-School Mason Jars - Fun Ideas for Teachers & More!

by on ‎08-25-2014 07:04 PM

Hi, everyone!


I love mason jars. I love planting flowers in them, arranging fresh bouquets in them, turning them into centerpieces…even turning them into handmade gifts. We’ve already done lots of projects with mason jars on You’re Home with Jill like homemade munch mix, a container garden, and natural room scents. And, I’m always dreaming of new uses for these containers.


Since it’s back-to-school season in my house and so many homes across the country, I wondered what school projects we could make with mason jars. So I asked some of our blogger friends to get creative! Here’s just a taste of what they came up with--I’ll be sharing their blogs on my Facebook page over the next week. I encourage you to check them out. And, even though this exact tumbler is sold out on QVC.com (we just couldn’t keep it in stock!) we’ve got another amazing mason jar set that can accommodate lots of these ideas. Plus, after the jar is empty, it becomes a beautiful part of any decor.
