This is the serving mason jar I've finished revamping. Decided to use this one to store ChapStick's.

This little piggy mason jar
This is the first of my completed mason jars.
I got this idea from a YouTube video.
I spray painted the lid and a plastic pig figurine with Krylon spray paint in Watermelon pink then glued the figurine to the lid.
I love this for storage and decor.

Newest obsession: Mason jars
I know, I'm late to the party on this trend too. But recently I have become obsessed with mason jars.
It all started with a YouTube video and I had to try my hand at a little DIY. Unlike most of my attempts at crafts, it actually came out as planned. I had to make more.
What I love about mason jars is the DIY possibilities are endless and they can be used for anything, not just for their intended purpose. And they're super affordable. All mine were either purchased at Dollar Tree, 99¢ Only Stores, or they were 2 for 1 at Michael's.
Can't wait to start showing them off.

Craft fail
This happens a lot. I see a project, whether it be on TV or YouTube and decide I want to give it a try.
This time I saw some diy room decor ideas. The vlogger made everything look so easy with a cute end product.
I tired to make her trinket bowls and animal mason jars. The bowls were an epic fail. I really didn't want to buy any more paint so at first I tried to paint basic, glazed cereal bowls with acrylic paint, not considering the fact that acrylic paint won't stick to the glazed surface. So I tired again with spray paint. It worked but I sorta messed up. Some bits came out thicker than others, and when I peeled off the tape the paint came off with it. 👏
The mason jar actually came out cute. I will try to do a few more. Will post the finished product later.
Can't win 'em all.
