Making this mason jar project was so fun, therapeutic, and calming. I enjoyed this easy craft so much that I didn’t notice I had already spent the whole day designing these three jars. It’s a very engaging art activity that really makes you lose track of time. If you have pressed flowers from your garden or picked up some pretty ones, this is a great way to show them off.

What makes this DIY clothespin trivet so fun is how effortlessly you can make it your own.

The best thing about this project is that you don’t need to make it entirely from scratch. You do, however, need a high-quality faux flower to make it look realistic. I got mine from DAISO, but I am sure you can find great options in other craft stores. Just be sure to pick the large ones. If you are feeling extra crafty, you can even make your own petals using crepe paper to mimic the natural texture of real flowers.

I love finding creative ways to reuse everyday stuff, and just a few days ago, I had a fun idea while digging through my drawer full of old hair ties. Instead of letting them sit there or tossing them out, why not turn them into something wearable? That’s how I discovered weaving hair ties into a headband.
