DIY Christmas Jars

With Christmas quickly approaching now, we are in the last month of the year its time to start getting our imaginative thinking heads on if you already haven’t already! This year I’m going to be doing various different DIY blog posts bringing you all ideas on how to spruce up your home/ room this Christmas! For once I want to do something a little different to my room this year and I always think that DIY crafts have a little more of a personal element to them and not only this but if you're wanting to do Christmas on a little bit of a budget this year then DIY gifts are always a great idea for Christmas gifts.

I was scrolling through pin it the other night and came across this great idea of Christmas Jars. Honestly these things are so so easy to make and look dead effective and you could place this within any room within your house.

What you’ll need

1)      First off you’ll need a typical mason jar which you can either buy online or at a craft store ie- the range. It’s probably best to get the mason jar first before you buy anything else, as you’ll want to make sure your happy with the size of it.

2)      Once upon buying your mason jar it’s time to start getting creative as you’ll want to decide on what your wanting to put in your jar, perhaps some fake snow, a little Christmas tree, and maybe even a reindeer (obviously not a real one! ). There’s so many ways to make the Christmas Jars personal  but if I was going to make one I’d consider getting one of them small Christmas trees that light up as that would look really pretty inside the jar.

3)      Once the inside of the Christmas jar is complete you can always opt to decorate the outside of it. Maybe a few Christmas snowflakes, and some pretty white or even sliver ribbon to go round the lid.
