Well my brother uses them to make liquors. Lemoncello, Apple Spice....now I'm getting off topic.
I use them for whatever strikes my fancy. I've filled them with decorative potpourri, colored glass rocks, fresh herbs from my garden, and most recently- flowers!
Everything from tulips to daisies to the poshest of posh peony looks super sweet in a mason jar. It's sort of a "yes I just had these beautiful flowers laying around and happened to pop them into this jar" casual look. I love that it's a total fake out. Plus, you don't have to be a super talented floral designer to do it-just get a few stems of the same flower and put them in. It will look perfectly simple every time. Make your flowers last longer by giving the stems a trim every few days and changing the water.
Some other Mason jar ideas to try:
- Souvenirs like sea shells from vacation
- Desk items like paper clips, pencils....go for a bunch of the same item in one jar
- Natural items like corks, clothespins, and rocks
- Cuttings from your garden
