16. Fireflies in a Jar

Turn your Mason jar into a jar of enchantment by making “fireflies in a jar”. While it would be cool – and totally cruel – to actually trap fireflies in your jar, you can recreate the wonder by using glow sticks and glitter. Yes, glow sticks! Cut your glow sticks open and pour the contents into the jar. Sprinkle a generous amount of gold glitter inside. Place the lid, shake, and be mesmerized.

17. Tissue Holder

How do you turn a plain old unexciting tissue holder into something that inspires conversation? Take out your Mason jar collection, your crafts station, and get crafting! Take inspiration from the upcycled Mason jars below: paint the insides with acrylic, glue silver glitters to the bottoms, and stick something cute on the lids.
