I'm obsessed. There, I admitted it. I'm still going crazy with mason jars! The latest idea just sort of came to me; why not frost a mason jar to use as a luminary? And, why not add personalization? So, here we have a Frosted Mason Jar Luminary, personalized! On the first jar I did, I only used a single letter for personalization. Then I had a custom order through my Etsy shop for a full monogram, which is pictured above. I think I love that even more than the single letter! I fell in love immediately.
If you want to do it yourself, it's super easy. All you need is a mason jar, or an old spaghetti sauce/pickle/canning/whateverkindofjar, Frosted Glass Spray Paint (found at your local hardware store or Walmart),a tea light candle or LED tea light, and a way to monogram/personalize. I used my Pazzles die cut machine to cut out vinyl lettering, but you could also use paint, or good old fashioned glue and construction paper. I also used flat black spray paint to paint the ring of the lid to make it all matchy-matchy.
I'll try to put up a full tutorial with pictures and everything very soon, but that list should get you started! Have fun!
The picture above has an LED tea light in it. I just love the glow, and it even flickers a bit like a real candle would. So cute!

This is so cute and creative! What font did you use? I love this!
Thank you everyone for the sweet comments! The font I used is Vine Monogram from Harold's Fonts. It's not a free font, but totally woth the purchase price. Thanks again!
I love your jar! It looks very elegant.
