Mason Jar Lanterns


I just saw this on the hgtv website and thought I would share. I am going to make some of these lanterns for my backyard. All you do is wrap 18 gauge wire around the top of the jar and leave enough to make a hanger, sprinkle some sea glass, marbles, small pebbles, etc. in the jar and place an LED flameless candle in there and presto you have a lantern!!

John and I will be sitting on the patio in the evening now that the temps are going down and I can't wait to see these little lanterns flickering away!! ENJOY!!
