Day 3: Christmas Mason Jars


Materials:

Recycled Jam Jars
Gingham Ribbon/ Christmas Ribbon
Holly sprig decoration
Tea light
Hot glue gun

Welcome to Day 3 of the 12 Days of Christmas and tonight we have Christmas mason jars. These jars are the simplest Christmas home decoration you could ever make and they are excellent for anyone doing Christmas on a budget.

Just simply wash out an old jam jar, grab a bit of gingham ribbon to wrap round the top of the jar and adhere in place with a hot glue gun. To finish it off, add a bit of holly sprig to the center and you are finished.

To add further decoration you could adhere more holly leaves and even rub on some Christmas words or phrases around the jar using craft rub ons or if you are very good at calligraphy grab a white sharpie pen and write round the jam jar yourself.

All you have to decide next is where to put them around the house........
