I have a fun and easy holiday décor DIY!
On today’s Friday field trip, I am demonstrating ‘a bird in a jar!’ Remember the year I put everything in jars for my holiday décor? Gingerbread cookies as well as holiday ornaments were on display in jars of snow a few years back. This is a little bit different from that display.
I have highlighted a single ornament in a pretty jar of snow. I happened to choose a bird ornament, but you can easily change it up to your own theme. I grouped three similar jars to create a display in my downstairs bathroom for the holidays.
Only one ornament is needed for each jar; so it is an economical display as well as a pretty one! The idea started from a beautiful little blue glass bird ornament I purchased new this year. I wanted to showcase this beauty! I looked through my ornaments and picked out two other bird ornaments – one was on a clip.
I used one bird per jar and grouped the three jars on a bathroom shelf. I am sorry the photos did not come out very well, but it is near impossible to get a good photo of a glass jar! And even harder to get a good photo of one in a bathroom with no windows! So I took the jars into another room to photograph. I hope you get the idea of how you can create a grouping in a similar way.
The pretty blue bird is suspended with a little piece of clear packing tape to the top of the jar. A second, sliver bird, sits in a pile of snow in another jar. I clipped the third bird onto a sparkly piece of a branch – cutting the branch to the exact width of the third jar so it would fit snugly inside! The three ‘bird in a jar’ creations make up an adorable holiday display!
I hope I have inspired you to create your own ornament display in jars!
Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful weekend and remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
