I love to fill my house with fresh flowers, especially in the Spring and Summer when I can just go out into my own garden and cut them. Right now my yard is full of iris, lilacs, hardy geraniums and my snowball bush is bursting with flowers. Today’s DIY Gold Mason Jar Vases are the perfect thing to put those flowers in. I love the touch of gold that is perfect for any room or color scheme you may have going.
My favorite thing blooming right now are the peonies we planted this summer. We were able to get some peony starts that were originally in the garden of my husband’s great grandmother. We put them in our front garden and they are doing amazing!
The process to make these simple but elegant flower vases is easy.
Supplies needed: Assorted sizes of jars, blue painters tape, newspaper and gold spray paint.
Step 1: Use blue painters tape to tape off the areas you do not want paint. I used a few different sizes of tape. I also covered the top or bottom of a couple of the jars with newspaper and taped it down. Works good when you have a large area you don’t want paint on.
Step 2: Spray paint and allow to dry
Step 3: Remove tape and paper.
Step 4: Add flowers
How easy is that!?
I’m totally loving how they turned out!
A perfect way to pretty up a mantel, your entry way or the dinner table.
Enjoy!

I love this idea. Simple yet elegant. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much – I love them too!
I love the mason jar project — the jars are different than the norm. Thank you for the tutorial. Will the paint come off if the jars are washed after using?
Judy, Just wash them by hand, don’t put them in the dishwasher.
Can I just use regular acrylic paint??
Hanna – that should work fine.
Great post!
Hi, there. Love these! What brand/type of gold spray paint did you use? It gave the jars a beautiful, clean look. Thank you!
