Mason Jar Party Time! DIY Mason Jar Party Decor
Fancy up your next summer shindig and make it a mason jar party! Mason jars are useful for sassing up any party, from food and drink to decorations.
Mason jars are more than just handy. They're a great eco-friendly craft supply to keep on hand. You can often find vintage mason jars at yard sales, thrift stores, or on eBay. Even if you end up buying new mason jars, their durability still makes them very eco-friendly. Those glass jars and the metal lids that come with them will last you for years and years, unlike cheap plastic goods.
Because they're versatile and sturdy, mason jars work great for all kinds of party decor. Check out these mason jar party ideas for your next backyard party!
1. Hanging Lantern
Light up the night with lots of hanging lanterns made from just a couple of simple supplies that you probably have on hand right this second!
2. No-Spill Party Glasses
Grab some simple tools and turn a batch of mason jars into reusable cups! Just make sure you choose a paper, metal, or glass straw instead of a plastic one for healthier sipping!
3. Mason Jar Cocktails
Instead of altering your jars to make sippy cups, you can also use them to serve pre-mixed cocktails with less mess.
4. Individual Cobblers
Make dessert extra special at your next throwdown by baking up a batch of cobblers in mason jars that your guests can grab and munch.
5. A Cooler Veggie Plate
A plate of crudites might look a little bit boring. Serve carrot and celery sticks, slices of sweet pepper, and other raw veggies in mason jars for a more appealing presentation.
