Mason Jar LoveThe mason jar as a decorative element in a wedding is perennially popular, but I love seeing all classics spun in a new, fresh way. Enter Sweet Tea Clothing Co., which, despite the name, features some great decor pieces as well. I love their take on incorporating mason jars in a more unexpected way than just as a vessel. The mason jar string lights and hanging planters are delightful, and would make charming additions to a vintage or rustic event! Images from Sweet Tea Clothing Co....

New Use for Mason Jars
How personal and easy is this idea? We love incorporating old photos into your reception decor but this idea really is quite clever and a snap to recreate. Simply collect old mason jars from flea markets or online sites like Amazon.com or eBay or if you don't have time to scour for vintage ones, you can purchase new ones at your local hardware or home improvement stores. They look great shown above without their lids! A touch of blue in the glass creates a cohesive look -- especially beneficial if some of your old photos are in color -- and adds to the vintage appeal. Gather photos fro...
