Hanging Glow Jars

Hanging Glow Jars

While on holidays I found these Glow Mason Jar in Kmart for $5 and just couldn’t resist on buying one!!

Serena and I made it into a hanging Glow Jar so sitting outside of the caravan will be ‘so much better’ at night.

What we used was some cotton twine and did macramé around the Mason jar.

You need to cut 5 lots of twine eight times the length of the jar, now tie them together in the middle. You should have 10 loose lengths of twine. 

Pair up the lengths of twine and tie each of them together about 2cm from the centre knot.

It should look like this :-

Now pair up 1 string from each knotted set and tie them together so you get a diamond shape. Repeat another 4 times with each pair of twine.

Place this over the bottom of the Mason Jar.

It is probably best to tape it in place. (Serena had me to help her hold it in place) now repeat the above steps of pairing and tying around the side of the Mason Jar so it’s a firm fit.

Once you macramé twine all around the jar until you reach to the top of the Mason Jar, divide the twine length into two groups (5 in each group) and tie them together.

 Now you can simply plat both of the groups of the twine for the hanging handles to the length you want. Tie the two platted handles together and its now ready to hang !!
