Mason Jars and Wine Bottles - Burlap and Glitter

Burlap and Twine,

 

Mason Jars and Wine Bottles,

 

Raffia and Yarn,

 

Tea stained book pages and Lace,

 

Glitter and Ribbon...

 

These are the makings

 

for an eclectic mix of decorations

 

at our big country barn dance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

They were a fun mix of wedding centerpieces.

 

Inexpensive.

 

Rustic.

 

Meaningful.

 

Photos inside of mason jars and photos on paper tags

 

kept the groupings personal.

 

Generational photos of Grandparent's weddings

 

were included along with the newlyweds.

 

 

 

 

We found an old

 

"Emily Post Etiquette" book at the thrift store,

 

tore out pages,

 

tea-stained them,

 

and layered them on burlap

 

around the wine bottles.

 

(lots of good laughs with all of the old rules)

 

 

 

 

To add some sparkle,

 

we used glitter in wine bottles

 

and mason jars.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This was quick and easy:

 

Use Pledge Floor Gloss.

 

Squirt in bottle.

 

Roll around until all interior glass is covered.

 

Sprinkle in glitter and roll until you have full coverage.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yarn texture, tissue poms, raffia, and lace

 

were other wraps and accents in the mix.

 

 

 

Green glass paint.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Painted Burlap Purple for flowers.

 

 

 

 

We had so much fun

 

creating different looks.

 

Imagine how many different combinations

 

you can make -

 

and really for any special occasion.

 

I especially loved

 

the personal and family sentiment throughout

 

"our big country barn dance".

 

Enjoying life's celebrations!
