I have been on the hunt for those awesome blue vintage mason jars, but havent had much luck. So after much frusteration, I decided to try to make them myself (thanks to google). Headed over to Michaels, bought Martha Stewart glass paint, a fan brush, and a set of mason jars from Smart and Final and got started!
Step 1: find an old piece of tupperware that you dont mind parting with after this project. You'll be using this to put your mason jars in so it doesnt drip and stain your permanent surfaces.
Step 2: Turn the mason jar upside down (open side down) and using vertical strokes, paint the jar. It will look alittle streaky, but most of that will go away when you bake the final product.
Step 3: let dry for at least 6 hours; then heat the oven to 325 and bake for 30 minutes.
