DIY Farmhouse Light - With a Mason Jar!

Ever since I saw these lights at my favourite little shop I've wanted them, aren't they awesome!? I was at this store just before Christmas and snapped this photo, sigh. The fact that it was just before Christmas though... I just couldn't justify spoiling myself by getting one.
It's funny how things work out sometimes... I'm participating in a 12 month creative challenge, every month for the next 12 months I will be creating something DIY with different materials, this month's material is mason Jars, anything mason jars. I knew instantly what I wanted to make, a DIY farmhouse light - with a mason jar. This was the mason jar I wanted to use.
The mason jar I used is an antique replica mason jar that I've had for so many years I don't even remember when I got it, it's been sitting on top of my cupboards collecting dust and grease since I bought it... basically it was begging to be used. I snapped this very fast photo while we were setting up the scoring process, you can see our glass cutting practice pieces on the right, the technique we used is awesome and worked perfectly every time (more on that in the blog).


We are so happy with how it turned out, what do you think, do you think you'd be comfortable to make one, it's easier than you think to cut glass... visit the blog to see how easy it is.
This DIY farmhouse light really adds a nice farmhouse vibe to this coffee station in our kitchen.
