Glass Jar Centerpiece With an Adirondack Twist

1 Material
I don’t usually gravitate toward glass (you know I love my ironstone) but I am always up for a challenge. I’m actually sharing 2 projects combined to make one cute farmhouse vignette. So here is my glass jar centerpiece using a DIY tabletop crate, Adirondack style.
