Four Ways to Use Mason Jars in Your Apartment near The Villages, FL

Mason jars can be a unique decorating item and organizational tool for your home. These strong glass containers, used mainly for canning purposes, can be used in many different ways in your apartment. For example, they can be used as a drinking glass or as a food storage container. They can also be great for decorating.

Here are four easy ways to decorate your apartment using Mason jars:

• As a flower vase – Fill up the jar halfway with water, and then place your flowers inside (with the stems cut down) for a simple, functional flower vase.

• As a bathroom supplies container – Along a shelf or on the bathroom counter, line up Mason jars filled with cotton balls, cotton swabs, makeup sponges, hair ties, makeup brushes, and whatever else you might need.

• As a planter – Place a black river rock to the bottom of the jar, fill up the jar with potting soil, and then add your houseplant. You’ll want a plant that does not grow quickly and only needs a medium amount of light.

• As a snow globe – On the bottom of the lid of the jar, hot glue a small figurine. (Make sure to use waterproof glue.) Fill the jar a little less than halfway with glitter, and then add water until the jar is almost full. Add glue to the rim of the jar, and then tightly screw on the lid. Flip it over, and now you have a snow globe!
