About a month ago I ordered some mason jars. Okay a lot of mason jars. I originally wanted to serve cocktails in them at a summer get together. Fast forward one month, and I've barely used them. I need to use them because its a waste not to, and also because when 24 mason jars came in the mail, my boyfriend was like, "what the hell are all of these for?" and I was like, "Everything of course, mason jars are so versatile!" And now they sit in a cabinet, taunting me. I have several ideas to use them, and I'm determined to do it this week.
1. As per my original plan, as a way to serve cocktails.
Which of course I purchased these adorable paper straws for: (6.20 for 150)
2. I also love this idea of using the mason jar as the cocktail shaker! (although it looks like you might have to buy that here. I don't think the point of this was to purchase more mason jars..)
3. There is always of course, using the mason jar as a vase. An idea which might be really overused, but I love all the same:
4. And some slightly different ideas I haven't seen as often (as salad keepers and terrariums):
Mason jars are relatively inexpensive, and clearly they are versatile...I just need to get my craft in gear. Any other great ideas for me? I need to get these out of my cabinet or remain the victim of my boyfriend's continuing "I told you so."
