What am I missing? Twinkling mason jars?

Is this some kind of a new trend that I'm missing? I really don't understand this TSV.

Now, if they were offering practical mason jars, I'd be all over that!

The reviews aren't great, and I was surprised that they are only 6" high. You could put a string of lights in any jar and decorate it any way you'd like.

I think they are very pretty colors and so beautiful when illuminated.

However, they are just too "country" for me, and I'm done with things which require batteries. I don't really like mason jars as decorative items.

To each his/her own. I think I could get a similar effect by painting jars I have on hand with crackle paint, then using either battery-operated lights or candle inside. Or, use any kind of candle inside, surrounded with colored glass pebbles or marbles.

Oh, BTW, during the midnight show, Shawn was going on & on about how these are so "Americana, mom & apple pie" etc. Not so much since they're imported.

They're pretty, but I've had my fill of battery operated decor items.

Trust me when I tell you that the QVC Outlet Store in Frazer PA, is going to be full of these things in about 3 weeks. Valerie's mercury glass spheres where there en mass after the Christmas season when they were the TSV.

I completely agree with happygal. I think the colors are lovely and I like the sparkly effect when turned on. However, they just don't go with my décor. I believe in the right setting they would look cute.
