Glass Jars have so many uses, like these Mason Jar Candle Holders. They are easy to make and perfect for any occasion, especially Fourth of July. I shared my DIY Glam Glitter Vases recently and it got me thinking about what else can I do with glitter and glass jars.

Supplies for the Jars: Mason Jars, masking tape, acrylic paint, glitter (I used chunking blue, medium white and fine red), Mod Podge, ribbon, and large lima bean.

  1. Oh love these. What a great idea. I just got a box of 24 red tapers from my grocery store for .25 each! They’ll be perfect for this! Thanks for the wonderful idea.
    And, thanks for visiting my blog today too.
