DIY Mason Jars: Thirty-Five Creative Crafts and Projects for the Classic Container by Melissa AverinosMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I was terribly excited to see my library had an e-copy of this book that just came out a month ago - not bad for small town USA!
The geek in me loves Part One: Mason Miscellany, which includes a history of the humble mason jar and explains the difference between a canning jar and a mason jar.
The projects use mostly common household objects and the projects are presented with very straightfoward directions. There's various categories and each category starts out with a basic project - like a base for making your own salad dressing using a mason jar as your holder.
Projects include:
vintage ceiling light
Reed diffuser
Sprouting jars
Homespun soap dispenser
pincushion
cloud jars
The best part about this book is Melissa's witty charm which is evident throughout the book.
