Well, hey there y’all! Let me tell you about this little beach mason jar craft project I just finished up. I took these two plain ol’ mason jars and turned them into some real beauties.
See, I was looking for something to spruce up my beachy decor, and these jars were just begging for a makeover. So, I got out my paint and some chalk couture supplies, and let my creativity run wild.
Supplies:
- 2 mason jars with lids
- Grey & cinnamon paint
- Etching cream
- Chalk Couture Transfers
- Chalk Couture squeegee
- Chalk Couture Paste
- Mod Podge glass sealer
- Sand, shells, and nautical style rope
Now, I’m no expert painter or anything, but with a little bit of paint magic, I was able to make those lids look like they’d been out in the salty sea air for years. I even added a few rusty spots to really give them that worn-in look.
Next, it was time to add some beachy flair. I grabbed my favorite transfer from the sheet and got to work. One jar got a relax and unwind message, and the other got a beach vibe. For the Beach Vibe one, I used glass etching cream. Even with the transfer, it turned out amazing! I was pretty proud of how they turned out, if I do say so myself.
But the real magic happened when I poured in some sand and shells. It’s like those jars came to life right before my very eyes. They were transformed into these beautiful little beachy scenes, and I couldn’t stop staring at them.
To finish them off, I tied a nautical rope around the top of each jar. It was the perfect finishing touch. Now, I’ve got these two little jars that bring a touch of the beach into my home, and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out.
