Polka Dot Mason Jars
Even though the mason jar crave has been going on for a while now I still have a love for mason jars and all things Mason Jars and today I have a super cute and easy-to-make Polka Dot Mason Jar tutorial for you and 12 MORE Mason Jar ideas as part of the Spring in a Mason Jar Blog Hop.
I thought it would be fun to celebrate spring with a colorful set of mason jars for my kitchen.....
I added a mason jar pump to one of the jars, a grain sack towel to another and for the third some fresh flowers ~ I might switch things up in a few weeks when I have some daffodils blooming in my yard and add those to the yellow polka dot jar and some hyacinths to the purple jar.
These would also be so cute on the countertop next to a sink ~ I don't have room on my countertop or else that's where these babies would be!
Supplies:
Mason Jars or other glass jars
DecoArt® Media Tinting Base in White {White Craft Paint may also be used}
DecoArt® Media Fluid Acrylics: Titanium White, Quinacridone Violet, Hansa Yellow Light, Yellow Green Light
DecoArt® Soft-Touch Varnish
Paint brush
Round Foam Stipple Brush
Wash and dry your mason jars and wipe them down with a cotton ball soaked in alcohol.
Paint 2 coats of white paint over jars allowing to dry between coats.
Once base coat is totally dry use your round foam stipple brush to add polka dots on your jars ~ have fun and go wild!
Allow to dry overnight and add one to two coats of the DecoArt® Soft-Touch Varnish
So now for the Spring in a Mason Jar Blog Hop ~ all of the lovely bloggers below shared a Spring in a Mason Jar idea ~ it would be wonderful if you visited them all to see their cheery springy creations!
