Spring is in the air here! For a little while at least.
We’ve had lots of rain and now the sun is shining and it’s almost 60 degrees! This is my kind of weather!
This weather also gets me in the mood for Spring. I love all the beauty the Spring season brings with it. It’s like taking a breath of fresh air.
Since Spring is on my mind right now, I decided to go ahead and start making some Spring DIY’s.
My inspiration for today’s DIY farmhouse mason jar vase actually came from one of my favorite places on earth – Kirkland’s. They have these cute floral mason jar vases right now for $12.99. That’s not exactly expensive, but I didn’t want to pay that price for something I knew I could make for way less.
Actually, my farmhouse mason jar vase was free because I already had everything on hand.

What you need:
What you do:
The first thing you want to do is make sure your mason jar is clean. My mason jar came from Goodwill so I washed it really well before painting.
My preferred method of painting glass is spray paint, but that wasn’t happening since it was raining when I made this. Since I couldn’t use spray paint, the only other paint I had on hand was craft paint.
When painting with craft paint on glass, it’s best to scuff the glass up a little bit with sandpaper. Just go over the mason jar lightly with the sandpaper. This helps the paint stick to the glass a little better.
Since I used craft paint to paint the mason jar, I did two coats. Here’s what it looked like after one coat.
After the paint dries on the mason jar, add some jute twine around the top. I wrapped the twine around the top of the jar twice and then tied it into a bow at the front.
Next, just add the flowers to the farmhouse mason jar vase and you’re done!
The flowers I used were cattails from Dollar Tree. I didn’t have any lavender, but I thought these looked pretty close and I didn’t really want to make a trip for 2 bunches of lavender flowers.
It’s not exact, but I think it looks very similar to the vase from Kirkland’s.
I’m happy with the way it turned out and the flowers can be changed for any season or holiday.
What do you think? Will you be making your own farmhouse mason jar vase for spring?

I love all your crafts michelle!!! Super ideas!!! Have a nice day and keep it up
Thank you so much! I hope you have a wonderful day! 🙂
No problem you too!!!!!
I love it! So simple yet so classy ?
Thank you so much!!
Lavender flowers are my favourite (and, wouldn’t you want a lavender farm to go with it? http://purpleadobelavenderfarm.com/)
Mine, too! I would love to visit that farm. I bet it smells amazing there! And the people who work there must be very relaxed. 😀
Sadly, I’ve never been, but I see the billboard on the way to work every day…it opens April 1st, so maybe this year! (I’ve used their products for years…)
I hope you get to go! It’s one of my favorite places to go. 😀
It’s beautiful I love it!
Thank you so much!!

You rocked it! I have lots of vintage Mason Jars at the LakeHouse… when we head there this Spring… I’m going to do this with a few! Lived this post!
By the way… Happy Valentine’s Day!
*loved not lived!
Thank you!! I hope you have fun making one for your home! 🙂 Thank you and happy Valentine’s Day to you, too! ❤️
I love this Michelle! I have this weird obsession with Mason Jars, so this would be a fabulous way to use some of the ones I’ve collected. Thanks for sharing this!
Thank you so much! If you have a lot like I do, then you can make one for every room! 🙂
I prefer yours for 2 reasons: 1. The mason jar looks more rustic 2. The flowers look fresh 🙂 (I’m sometimes tempted to buy fake plants but they will never look the same as real ones)
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your feedback and you just made my day! 😀
Love this repurpose, Michelle!! Simple yet so pretty!! Now to find some extra mason jars!! Pinned!!
Thank you so much! I hope you find some mason jars! 🙂 Thank you for pinning!
Cute!
Thank you so much!
Looks nice, I like it and need to try this, have lots of jars! Thanks so much for linking up with me at my #UnlimitedMonthlyLinkParty 9 where I leave a comment and share all entries on social media if share option is available, open February 1 to 26.
Thank you so much! I would love to see yours if you get a chance to make one!
It looks very close to the original! You did a great job as always, Michelle! I love lavender so much and use a lavender spray in my bedroom at night before turning out the light. (Not sure if it makes me sleep better, but I do love the scent!)
Thank you so much! I love the scent of lavender, too. I’m always stocking up on lavender essential oil. 😀 It’s so calming. I bet your bedroom smells so good at night! I use it in every room. 🙂
It does, and I find it lasts really well too. Like it doesn’t wear off in 5 minutes or even 20! When I wake up in the morning I still can smell it a bit!
I loved the outcome and looks great. You did great with it.
Thank you so much!!
You are welcome. ?
This looks so good! Perfect for Spring! I may need to make one of these soon too! Thank you so much for sharing. I love doing simple and easy DIYs like this!

Thank you so much!! 🙂
Thank you so much!
Adorable! And I’ll have to try lightly sanding my mason jars before painting them with craft paint; I could never figure out how to make that go on nicely, so I appreciate that tip in particular. 🙂
Thank you! I’m happy to help. ?
How do you even possess such creativity? Wow
Aww thank you so much!!
Sometimes the simplest ideas are the best right? What a great saving and your vase looks so pretty 🙂 Thanks for sharing with us at Handmade Monday, we have a group pinterest board which I have invited you too, if you’d like to pin your ideas there you’d be very welcome 🙂
Thank you so much!!
This turned out so cute!
Thank you so much!!
You always make such beautiful things and in a super easy way. Thank you. Oh and in this one I really like your jar more.
Thank you so much! 😀
Such a simple and pretty idea!
Thank you so much!
Wow! So beautiful and creative ?
Thank you so much!
I do something similar with jars but your basket vignette is a perfect background.
Thank you so much! I
So simple yet so effective! I love this xxx
Thank you so much!
I absolutely love your creation Michelle! What a perfect way to bring in these Spring-like temperatures! Yet again, you amaze me with your talent! ?
Thank you so much!! I’m so ready for spring!! 😀
Great idea! I actually made some exactly like this a while back and even tied a bow of jute string like you did. What a fun coincidence! I love using them as vases for real or faux floral arrangements.
Great minds think alike! How cool is that? Thank you for reading!
Very cute. Thanks. And finally something spring like today. So tired of winter.
Thank you! Me, too. Every time it seems like Spring is here, winter comes right back.
This is very cool. I have a bunch of old jars that I want to do something crafty with.
~cie the ornery old lady~
Thank you so much! I hope you can use up some of those jars.
