DIY Spring Mason Jars

Super easy DIY for spring. Great thing about making crafts yourself is you can pick any colors you want.
 
 
I started going with Mason Jars from Hobby Lobby. They're %50 off which made them 1 whole $. You're welcome! And then got some acrylic paint.
 
 
 
Acrylic paint is water based so be carefully about washing your hands, then immediately touching your jars. I learned the hard way.
 
 
 
My handsome assistant here kept himself entertained while I finished my project!
 
 
 
It took about 2 to 3 coats, which you can wait an hour or so in between. Then before sanding down, I let them dry over night. You want to sand all over, especially the rim and words. Makes it pop a little more.
 
 
 
 
Add some flowers from Hobby Lobby that are also %50 off and you're done.
 
Happy Easter and hello Spring!
