Hey there, friends! It's Jennifer here, back on the blog with a fun and creative home decor project. Today, I’ve transformed a large mason jar wood piece into a charming photo holder and unique decor accent. These versatile wooden shapes are not only ideal for sprucing up your space but also make for a thoughtful, handmade gift. Let’s dive in!
First, I grabbed my trusty brown Unicon Spit stain and got to work. I lightly misted the wood with water, then applied a generous layer of the stain. After letting it dry just a bit, I took a paper towel and gently wiped away some of the excess, revealing a beautifully rich finish.
Once the first layer dried, I gave it another spritz of water and added a vibrant layer of Magenta Unicorn Spit. I let it dry for a bit, then repeated the process—spraying with water and wiping it down—until I achieved that perfect, blended look. The pop of magenta really brought the piece to life!
I rummaged through my supplies and found some fun chipboard elements, which I added to the bottom of the mason jar for a little extra flair. Then, I grabbed some trusty glue and a clip, securing it to the upper-middle section of the jar. This gave the piece the perfect touch of charm and functionality!
To finish things off, I took some brown ribbon and tied it around the upper portion of the jar, creating a lovely bow. To prevent any fraying, I carefully used a lighter to seal the ends. Then, I grabbed a few silk flowers, arranged them into a sweet little bouquet, and secured it to the back of the mason jar. The perfect finishing touches to complete this rustic beauty!
Thanks so much for stopping by, friends! Wishing you all happy crafting and endless creativity! ~Jennifer
