By recycling the old glass jars you have at home you can create beautiful Christmas decorations, ranging from lanterns embellished with magnificent paper cutouts to hand-painted jars. Take inspiration from our selection of creative ideas.
Painted jars
Recover some glass jars, paint them blue and light blue using acrylic paints, let them dry and draw some snowflakes. If you have a good hand you can use a fine-tipped brush, otherwise use a white permanent marker. Add a piece of string and a bell. Now you can use them to insert twigs and Christmas decorations.
Lanterns with carvings
Decorative jars
Ideal for placing in front of windows, on shelves or on top of a piece of furniture, these decorative jars are very easy to make:
pour a little salt or flour inside the jar, insert an artificial pine tree and add some string around the top edge of the jar.
Pine cone in the jar
Do you like pine cones? Make them the protagonists of Christmas by placing them in a recycled glass jar: glue the pine cone on the inside of the cap, wrap the latter with string, then use it to close the jar, turn the masterpiece upside down.
