I've been inspired by the great ideas that y'all have shown on your posts, for using mason jars.
Yesterday, I ran across cute mason jar candle holders at Kirkland's...on sale for $2.39 each! Here's how I decorated them.
I looked through my ribbon stash, and found ribbon for a bow... ...added some Epsom salts for the snow...
...and then I looked through my Christmas decorations.
In this jar, with the natural ribbon, I "planted" tiny natural/bleached trees...
...this one has green ribbon and...
...little pinecones from my yard.
I dabbed them with white paint, and hot glued them to a sprig of faux greenery.
I made several of these to use in other jars.
The LED tea lights are from the Dollar Tree. I already had everything I needed except the mason jars and LED lights, so the cost per jar was just under $3.
I plan on giving most of them to friends, just after Thanksgiving, and I still have a few more to finish, so guess I'd better get busy.
Hope y'all have a very Happy Thanksgiving.

Beautiful idea, Babs!
Those are so pretty! I love how you took plain jars and turned them into little snow globes and candle holders. Those will make wonderful gifts.
How cute! That came together so perfectly and I can't believe you did it all for such a good price. You've got sweet skills. :)
