I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother’s Day! Mine was a little all over the place but excellent nonetheless. I wanted to share with you a super fun DIY project that I made for my mother for Mother’s Day that I think all of you will enjoy making too! This year I decided to a little bit different of a gift… I decided to snazzy-up some mason jars! My family and I love drinking from mason jars and what’s better than just slapping on a little chalkboard paint to make it that much more fun. Check it out…
Items Needed:
- Mason Jar{s} {your choice of size}
- Chalkboard Paint
- Small Paintbrush
- Scissors
- Paper
- Permanent Marker
- Drill
- Straw
- Rubber grommet
- Chalk
How To:
1. Start by tracing out onto paper the shape of what you would like your chalkboard paint to look like on your mason jar. {You may also tape off a design directly onto your mason jar using painters tape.}
2. Using your permanent marker, trace around your desired shape directly onto your mason jar.
3. Now using your chalkboard paint, fill in the shape.
4. Now using your permanent marker, mark the spot on the lid where you would like your straw to be. {I found that placing the hole for the straw closer to the edge of the lid is more comfortable for drinking.}
5. Time to get out the big guns and drill through the dot you marked on the lid!
6. Push your rubber grommet through to cover up the rough edges.
7. Now chalk it up with your name, a straw and a refreshing drink!
These are great for parties so everyone doesn’t have to worry about whose cup is whose!
Lots of fun, right?!
Have a fantastic day!
