With just a little paint, twine, and shamrocks, you’ll create a rustic, budget-friendly decoration that looks like it came straight from a boutique.

Whether you want a farmhouse centerpiece or a fun Dollar Tree craft, this idea is quick, easy, and charming.

Let’s get started!

Step 1: Prepare the Jar

• Start with a clean, dry glass jar, you can repurpose an old jar or use a new one.
• Wash the jar with warm soapy water to remove any residue or oils, and let it dry completely.
• If your jar has labels, soak it in warm water for a few minutes and scrub off any adhesive.
• This ensures the paint adheres smoothly for a polished final look.

Step 2: Paint the Mason Jars

Now that the jars are clean and prepped, it’s time to add some color.

• Use chalk paint or acrylic paint in green, white, and red (if adjusting for a St. Patrick’s Day theme, you can replace the red with a lighter green or gold).
• Apply the first coat evenly using a foam brush or regular paintbrush.
• Let it dry completely before adding a second coat for full coverage.
• If you prefer a rustic, distressed look, lightly sand some areas once dry.

Step 3: Decorate the Mason Jars

Now that the jars are painted and dry, it’s time to add the finishing touches to create a festive St. Patrick’s Day mason jar centerpiece.

• Attach shamrock cutouts to the front of each jar using either glue or double-sided tape. Mix glitter, solid, or patterned shamrocks for variety.
• Wrap twine around the jar neck and tie a bow for a rustic farmhouse look.

• Fill each jar with faux flowers, greenery, or dried wheat stems to complement your decor.
• Arrange them together for a charming DIY St. Patrick’s Day display.
