Make DIY Mason Jar Lamps - Fun Way to Upcycle Jars of Buttons and More
I turned an old glass jar of buttons that belonged to my mom, into a lamp with a simple kit. Now it has more of a purpose and we love it! Plus, it's a nice way to display something that she loved and collected. Mason jars filled with small collectibles or "pretties" can easily be turned into lamps!!
My jar of buttons after lamp kit and shade were added.
This is the jar of buttons I used....these belonged to my mom. I'm so happy that I could reuse the jar in such a fun way.
Another lamp we made, using old spools of thread in a glass Ball jar.

Using the old wooden spools of thread is exactly what I did with mine! It sits on my sewing machine.

It just goes to show what old jars and small things around the house, If you don't know what to do with them, can inspire people with farsightedness and imagination. Well done! It helps us others to look around us and see what we can use.
