Hand Painted Mason Jars for Kitchen Storage

Mason jars were invented in 1858 by John Landis Mason. Today, mason jars are used for kitchen and bathroom storage items. Sometimes, mason jars are used as vases. However, mason jars give a warm inviting look to your kitchen. You can use spray paint or acrylic paint to paint your Mason jars. 

Mason jars are one of my favorite items for painting and for use as kitchen storage.  Painting mason jars make an effortless way to decorate and store kitchen items. Some kitchen items such as tea bags, coffee stirrers, and sugar can be stored and secured in mason jars. The best part is that you can recycle pickle jars for this painting project. Here is the tutorial for making these hand-painted mason jars.

Materials:

4 Different Colors of Acrylic Paint

(Antique White) (Blue) (Red) (Yellow)

Paintbrushes

3 Mason Jars or Pickle Jars with Lids

Letter Stencil (Optional)

High Gloss Topcoat 

Pencil

Begin by removing the labels of the pickle jars. Wash the jars and wait for the jars to get dry. Then, paint one or two coats of paint onto the jars. You can paint the whole jar or make a label size shape with the paint. Wait for the acrylic paint to get dry. Next, use a letter stencil and a pencil to spell the words, Coffee, Tea, and Sugar. You can use any word for your kitchen storage jar. 




After that paint, each letter with different color paint. Wait for the letters to dry. Then, paint flowers and lines. Wait for the paint to get dry. Last, use a high gloss topcoat paint on top of the painted design. Wait for it to get dry before using the jars. Have fun painting your Mason jars.
