Recycle old canning jars into something new, or pick up a new Mason jar at the dollar store to create these beautiful home décor accents. Over at Homemade Simple, I show you how to make pretty painted and glitter-dipped jars to use as vases or a pretty centerpiece. You can always find canning jars at the thrift store, at garage sales, or at the grocery store (usually in the spring and summer). [Decorate with Mason Jars]
