This is a sponsored post on behalf of mason jars from Consumer Crafts.

Don’t you just love all of the creative ways you can use a mason jar?  I could look at ideas for hours.  I am lucky enough to be a part of a sponsored group this Summer that sent me 1 dozen mason jars!  Yep, they are from Consumer Crafts.

I was also given the opportunity to order from their vast line of craft items and accessories. With my own inspiration I created a Mason Jar Wedding Lamp with Crafty Jars.  I am in wedding mode this weekend, as I am doing bridal flowers for a friend.  I was excited to get started to make my Mason Jar Wedding Lamp with Crafty Jars!!

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty Jars

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty JarsThese are the items I ordered.  Fun, huh?  Pure wedding  creative juices coming through my brain as I look at all of these items!!

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty JarsUsing the Krylon Glitter Spray, I sprayed my jar with 4 layers of  glitter.  Follow directions on the can.  Do this in a well ventilated area.  I did mine outside.

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty JarsI liked the glitter spray so much I also sprayed my “lamp shade”.

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty JarsWith a hole punch, I made holes for added depth and appeal.

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty JarsOnce my mason jar was dry, I filled it with 2 bags of no hole glass iridescent beads.  Then I turned on my battery operated votive and placed her in the jar.  Looking good so far…

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty Jars I used 20 gauge wire so have my “lamp shade” sit up high on the jar.  I made a loop once around the jar, then twisted it tight.  leaving a long end to hold the “lamp shade”.

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty JarsBringing the long end of  the wire straight up from the jar, I turned the wire into a spiral shape.  This will hold my “lamp shade” level.

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty JarsI ordered this feather comb from the bridal section at Consumer Crafts.  Yep, it’ s a hair comb.  But it adds just the right elegance to my Mason Jar Wedding lamp.  I used a heavy strength glue to adhere the comb to the jar.

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty JarsIsn’t she gorgeous?  She looks so happy and ready to be a gorgeous centerpiece for any wedding.

Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty JarsI just love Consumer Crafts!  I was able to find everything I needed for my Mason Jar Wedding Lamp With Crafty Jars.
