Capturing memories in mason jars... how fun is this? Thinking my idea for photos in mason jars was just genius, I decided to Google to see if this genius idea was already thought up by someone else. It was! Okay so I may not be as original as I thought! Too funny! But as my sweet husband told me, "it was still your idea... until you found out it was someone elses." Thanks for not re-bursting my bubble honey!
I found these turquoise mason jars at an antique store and I just fell in love! I have been wanting to redo my downstairs bathroom with a mason jar theme for quite awhile now. Though the bathroom is not yet started my inspiration has my imagination soaring. I decided to go with a beachy theme to my photos, being that I am a California girl living in the mountains. Needless to say... missing the ocean. So with out much further ado enjoy!
I just can't wait until I begin working on the bathroom!
I am linking up to these parties

Pin It Now!
Great pics! What a nice idea.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen it before so to me you are the original:)
Bianca

ReplyDeleteFabulous idea!! I just love it!! You have a beautiful family!
ReplyDeleteThat idea is awesome! I love the way you added a "pop" of color in the black and white photos in the jars. I saw your post over at V.I.P. party.
ReplyDeleteI love this..

ReplyDeletebeautiful. I will definitely implement this idea in the future!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea - and even if I saw it elsewhere, I still enjoyed looking at your photo jars! I also have some blue ball jars and put one photo in a clear larger jar - but I like the black and white in the blue jars! Thanks for sharing

Is there anything in the jar other than the picture and air? I have seen some people who fill the jar with vegetable or olive oil and then put the pic in, giving it a nice sepia look.
ReplyDeleteNo there is nothing extra added into the Mason jar.
ReplyDeleteLove! Love! Love! I can't wait to try it!! :)
ReplyDeleteThese are SO lovely!! I'm including this in a Gimme Five for Friday roundup of beachy decor ideas. I adore these!
ReplyDeleteI have made these with Baby-food jars, holding miniatures & lights. Have you ever tried cutting around the child's shape,then reinforcing it with poster board or a thin cardboard, for a 3-D effect? Then placing it inside. This would, also be cool with snow scenes, sledding, skating, etc. with snow in the jar.Great idea, Lovely job very creative.Makes a very memorable keepsake from a vacation!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your great comments! I love the ideas! Love, love, love the snow scene idea! Thank you so much!

Hi! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website?
ReplyDeleteI'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had issues
with hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

ReplyDeleteBut, think about this, ωhat if уou adԁed a little content?
I mеan, I dοn't wish to tell you how to run your website, however what if you added a title that grabbed folk'ѕ attention?
I meаn "Mason Jar Memories" is а little νаnіlla.
You might look at Yahoo's front page and watch how they create article headlines to grab people to click. You might add a video or a related picture or two to grab readers interested about everything'νе got
to say. In my opіnіon, it could makе yοur pοѕts a little liνеlier.
