HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN VACATION KEEPSAKE MASON JAR
If your family is like mine, we tend to collect little treasures on our trips. This year we collected sea shells at the beach and more than our fair share of interesting rocks. Today we are sharing an easy way to store you trip treasures with these easy DIY Vacation Keepsake Mason Jars.
These keepsake jars are labeled with the place and year and are perfect for storing our collected treasures.
SUPPLIES USED:
Mason Jar or other glass jar
Stick on Letters
Spray paint in color of choice
Plastic Bag
Painters Tape
STEP 1:
Use the sticky letters to create a label with the place visited and year.
STEP 2:
Cover the mason jar with a plastic bag and painters tape to cover all areas of the jar that you do not want painted.
STEP 3:
Spray paint with the color of your choice and allow to fully dry. I waited 24 hours.
STEP 4:
Carefully peel off the painters tape, bag and the sticky letters.
STEP 5:
Fill with sea shells or other small treasures collected from your trip and display!
If you enjoyed this project, please pin it! Thank you for sharing!
