I have a thing for mason jars.
They can serve so many purposes. I made some succulent jars this past weekend and actually gifted 4 of them to my Mom for Mother’s Day. We all love flowers, but they die in days so I thought this was the perfect alternative. I have been told these are kill proof. Such a great gift idea for teachers, housewarming, friends, new baby, etc. They add so much color to a room and make the perfect indoor plant.
Materials:
mason jars
mini succulents (I hand picked mine at the Do It Center)
soil
spray paint
twine
Directions:
Spray paint mason jars. I used Rustoleum spray paint. Spray paint the jars right side up, let them dry. Then flip over and spray painted the bottom half.
Let dry completely before planting. Add soil, plant.
To prevent mold, add activated carbon inside the jar with the soil.
That’s it. I wrapped each jar with twine and had I enough time, I might have printed out some tags for them.
Happy Spring!

Thank you Christen! 🙂 They add just the perfect amount of color to my kitchen 😉
Such a cute gift. They could be given away to new mothers, blue for boys and pink for girls.
Thanks for sharing.
God Bless
