The window displays at Anthropologie are always stunning. Shocker, I know.
It is amazing how they so easily transform corks, clothes-pins, marshmallows, and many other everyday items into beautiful pieces of art. This past weekend, while in Portland, I spied Anthropologie's spring window display. It was full of beautiful color and, wait for it, paint-splashed canning jars.
I happily realized that I could easily do this at home; I already owned several mason jars in different sizes and, thanks to my Graeme-bear, I had a colorful supply of finger-paint! ( For different height options, I also added in some baby food jars that I had from when Graeme was teeny-tiny. )

This project took all of thirty minutes. It was so quick and easy and I love all of the color on my mantle. And the best part? When I am finished with them, I can wash them out and make these beautiful mason jar snow globes for next Christmas.

I can't wait to add some fresh flowers from our farmer's market to my happy mantel!
happy mondaying to you...............

ReplyDeleteI know I already commented but I had to let you know how much fun I had making these. I posted a photo on my blog. I am on the hunt for more glass things and some different paints. I have so many ideas for what I can do with these beauties! Thanks again for being so inspiring!
ReplyDeletelove those colors! I have some clear flower vases I never use, so might have to give it a try!
ReplyDeleteLove it ... and too funny. I was hyper inspired by Anthro's display too and make some of my very own!
