Easy Painted {Patriotic Mason Jars}

These were so easy to make 
and are such a fun decor with 
these mason jars coming into home decor lately!

What You Will Need To Make Them:

-3 Mason Jars {I used 2 different sized. 1 big and 2 little}

-Red, White and Blue Craft Paint

-Cardboard or Tin Foil {not pictured}

How I Made Them:

If you remember the Easy Painted Vases {HERE}
 that I made a couple of months ago, these were done just like those.


All I did was put a bit of paint in the jar, turned it upside down and started turning it so the paint would go all over the jar, like this:

After you get the paint fully covered on the inside you will set them upside down to drip the access paint. This will take a couple of hours. Just keep checking and then moving it to a clean area so you can really monitor it.

Then when all the paint as seemed to drip off you will set them up right to fully dry. I set mine outside because it was a super hot day so I knew they would dry pretty fast.

When you fill they are fully dry, you can put the rings back on them and put a flower in if you would like! 

If you want to leave them without these, you will want to take sand paper to the tops of them to get rid of any paint that needs to be removed on the outside lip. 

That's it!!

So easy and they turn out gorgeous!!

Hope you have an 
AMAZING 4TH OF JULY HOLIDAY

Today, I have my very last 4th of July Decor to show you! It has been so fun making all these fun and cute decorations to put up in the house to make it festive! 

Here is the Freedom Wreath Sign:

Overall this was very easy to make, just a little time consuming!

How I made it:

First, I measured out my piece of wood to fit the width of the wreath and then gave a few inches extra so I could put the word on the bottom. The size I did was 15 1/2"x 11".  My hubby cut it to size for me!

Next, I spray painted it red. The Lazy Man's way:) I was going to hand paint it, but spray painting is just much easier. 

While that was drying I made the wreath. I used the same technique I did on my American Flag Ruffle Wreath. 

-I cut out a bunch of circles using a small cup as my guide. Then I folded the circle in half and in half again. The I put a pin at the point of the circle and stuck it in the wreath-making sure I turned them different directions. 

When I got the wreath put together. I cut out the word "Freedom" on my circut in the font I wanted. I used white vinyl. I then stuck it onto the bottom of the board. 

Lastly, I got some silver ribbon and put it through the wreath. Then I hot glued it on!!

Definitely easy like I said, just takes a little time!!!

I just love it though. I put it on a easel on the shelf above my TV!

Happy Decorating!!!

FIREWORKS are on of my favorite parts of the 4th of July!!!

I love doing them in front of my house and I love going to big events that have the Amazing sky ones! 

I just had to bring a little of the festivities into my house with a little

FIREWORK DECOR!!

They were so fun and easy to make!

What I did was:

Paint my 3 blocks of wood in red, white, and blue. They are the same width across, but they are all different heights. 

When those dried, I drilled small holes in the top of each of them.

After I got the holes done, I got on my cricut and cut the words snap, crackle, pop, as well at stars and stripes. I put those on the wood how I wanted them.

Next, I got a package of silver pipe cleaners to put in the holes.

I twisted them around my finger to give them a fun look and cut them down to the size I wanted. Then I hot glued them into each hole.

I love the way they turned out! They are so cute and fun sitting on my TV stand!!

Hope you all enjoy fireworks as much as I do!!!
