I painted the doors with a few coats of a creamy white satin paint
and lightly distressed the edges.
Then I added a sawtooth hanger to the back for hanging
and screwed a metal pipe clamp to the front.
I made sure the tightening mechanism on the pipe clamp was facing forward
so that I could loosen and tighten it to hold a jar.
Lastly, I loosened the clamp, slid the mouth of my jar into it
and tightened the clamp to securely hold my jar.
I made a couple with blue mason jars and a couple with green mason jars.
The pipe clamps can be purchased at any home improvement / hardware store.
They come in a variety of diameters.
You can vary this project to suit your space by using different kinds of jars
and a different backing piece,
The wall vase can hold flowers, a small plant, herbs, pencils, make up brushes
or even a votive candle.
what a cute idea adina...those supplies are in abundance so most people can find them and make this cute project xx
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm hoping to find a long narrow door to hang horizontally and attach 3 jars to it.
DeleteSo fresh and pretty!! :-)

Thank you Sherri :)
DeleteIt's very cute and will be fun for so many seasonal things. You could do one of the little snow globe type settings inside a jar, too. I saw your drop cloth pumpkins and love them. You are so creative! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Diane! I'm just finishing up a couple more wall vases on beadboard inside of vintage wood frames. These will hold winter/Christmas greenery.
