Jar Jar Thinks

Anyone on Pinterest will be aware of the cult of the Mason Jar. There are loads of things you can make with Mason jars.

Mason Jars rock. I don't have any Mason Jars as they are a US thing but I do have a growing collection of jars, some that I've dug up and are decades old ( the one on the left) and some that are from rather less vintage pasta / chutney bottles.

I have been putting tealights in them - and been playing with making them a bit more interesting! So now I can look at some lovely words from a special song* while getting through some of my 200+ tealights from IKEA.

You HAVE to pick up tealights when you go Swedish shopping right?

Got an idea for making some cool ones for Lily's room too.

I'd never heard of a Mason Jar till a couple of weeks ago - and then it turned up in one of my favourite (at the moment) songs. And some of my favourite lyrics.

"Heal the scars from off my back
I don't need them anymore
You can throw them out or keep them in your Mason jars

I've come home"
