How Enchanting: The Easiest Mason Jar Fairy Lantern and Free Printable!

Are you as in love with fairy gardens as we are? We’re enchanted by all things fairy here at Plaid! No matter if you’re new to the fairy fun or if you’ve already been living the glow life, we’ve got an easy fairy garden project to share with you.

Turn mason jars or any upcycled glass jar into a pretty Lighted Fairy Jar with Mod Podge and FolkArt Multi-Surface Acrylic Paint. We’re sharing the full how-to on our website along with the free Fairy Silhouette Printable download




With an adult’s help, the kids will also love to help decoupage these fun DIY Fairy Jar Lanterns


We love the idea of making several jars for a pretty garden party centerpiece or to light up any night! Mod Podge Sparkle adds a sweet touch of magic, and the Mod Podge Mod Melter helps to embellish the lids. 


We just love how these turned out! We painted the lids with FolkArt Multi-Surface Bright Pink, Medium Blue and Lavender to add some whimsy to the jars. A flameless tea light adds the right amount of subtle glow!
