DIY Heart Jars
If you're looking to add a personal touch to your gifts, DIY Heart jars are a perfect choice! Fill a mason jar with sweet treats, heartfelt notes, or small tokens of appreciation to show your loved ones how much they mean to you. Get creative with decorating the jar with ribbons, stickers, or even a handwritten label. These personalized jars are sure to bring a smile to the special people in your life on this love-filled day!
Supplies for Heart Jars
Start off by washing and removing the labels from the jars.
I use chalk paint for painting jars most of the time because it adheres to the jars better than regular acrylic paints. Since I don’t have any pink for this project I will be using white chalk paint to base coat each jar.
Then I will add a couple of coats of pink acrylic paint to the two Heart jars.
For the first jar grab a paper plate and some red acrylic paint. Squirt some paint onto the paper plate and then grab a heart-shaped sponge. Dip and cover the bottom of the sponge with the paint then gently press the sponge to the sides of the heart jar. Gently rolling from side to side. (don’t press down too hard or you will get a messy blob).
Repeat until you get all the hearts you want onto your jar.
Repeat until you get the whole Heart jar covered with small hearts to your liking.
Let both jars completely dry then give both a light sanding if you like.
To finish off the two DIY Heart jars tie some raffia or jute around the necks of the jars.
