I am fortunate enough to be returning this fall to visit a friend in Nashville (my first time in Music City, USA!). After a phone conversation with my pal earlier this week, I seem to be daydreaming of the region and one of the things that pops into my mind is mason jars. Totally country chic.
Aren't they just beautiful? They can be used for the simplest things and create such a big impact. Do/have you used mason jars to decorate?
Let's see what you're pinning this week. Link up with Michelle of The Vintage Apple and play along. If you want to be Pinterest pals, add me ;)It's also time for another edition of What the Hell Wednesday with Christianna of The Girl With the Blue Bow! So here's my rant...
Yesterday I saw a familiar homeless woman eating from the trash outside of my work. She's a bit scary and tends to yell at people but I figured I'd put my fear aside and give her one of the two bananas I'd just bought. I hand her the piece of fruit and say "Here ya go!", to which she responds with a dirty look then proceeds to throw (and by throw I mean slam) than banana into the trash! Really?!
What do you need to get off your chest this week? Head on over to Christianna's blog and link up!

Mason jars can be used in SO many ways! I'm dying to sip some drinks out of them or to throw candles to light up a breazy summer night.
Eternally yours,

Crazy ass homeless lady! That made me laugh!!
I LOVE mason jars too! I would love to make them into a light fixture one day. So pretty!! And while we may not be considered part of "the south" (even though we are south dangit! lol) you should definitely come down to Texas for a visit ;) Lots of manners here!

i used to work in downtown la, and every single day for YEARS the same homeless woman would stop me and say, "ma'am i am six months pregnant, can you please help me." well i FINALLY got up the nerve to tell her, "lady, you have been six months pregnant for years. you need a new line. but here's a dollar."
I'm OBSESSED with Mason jars! They make everything instantly more fun.

NEVER offer her a banana again. What a rude lady, guess she likes digging in the trash!
Anyways, love all the pics of the mason jars! So many great ideas :)
Oh me too! I can't get enough of them :)
There is something so magical about mason jars!
As a Southern girl, I LOVE Mason jars. I use them all the time at events: candy dishes, drinkware, candle holders, whatever!
YAY for the South and all things Southern-inspired! LOVE mason jars. AND love love love Nashville. You will have so much fun, and not want to leave! & then you'll only be 2 hours from ME and we could totally hang out. ;) ;) ;)
