My mom and I went shopping this past weekend at the Christmas Tree Shop for some holiday decorations when we came across these gorgeous country style Mason jar table lamps.
Our heads were “filled” with ideas for these jars so we each snatched up two of them. What I love about them is that they can be filled with just about anything (except for liquids) and you can keep them out all year long. Mine are currently filled with potpourri in those warm autumn colors that so beautifully compliment this time of year and my home décor. They can be filled with mini ornaments, pinecones or even candy canes for Christmas, Moss during spring time, and seashells in the summer time. You can also choose to play around with the lamp shade, by replacing it with another, tying ribbon to it, or using double sided tape to attach things to it without ruining the shade.
