Materials Needed to Make Decorated Mason Jars For Weddings
- White Series Lights (battery powered)
- Clear Mason Jar with Lid
- 2 Lengths of 1-meter Twine
Step 1: Tie on each side
You start by tying the upper part of the mason jar. Use one twine for the left side, and the other one for the right side.
Make sure that you secure the ties with a tight knot to prevent it from falling.
Step 2: Fill lights
Put the lights inside, already lit up.
Step 3: Close and display
Close tightly to keep the ties in place and you can start displaying. You can either hang them from a tree branch or just have them affixed to the table as a centerpiece.
