DIY Magical Mason Jar Lamps

Lighting is an impactful investment for you wedding that can add drama, romance and ambience, as well as really draw attention to an ornate venue or make a simple setting just a little more intimate and special.

While you may have your heart set on 100,000 strings of fairy lights, your budget or venue may not be so agreeable.

Rest assured, a little can go a long way. It doesn’t take much to make a big impression and set a mood. Here’s a quick tutorial on creating mason jar lamps for your table centerpieces. (You don’t have to use mason jars either, use hurricane lamps, old glass bottles, or anything else you can get your hands on that matches your style and personality. Using a frosted glass will give a softer, muted light.)

In addition to the string lights, you can also use glow-in-the-dark paint for a completely different and more whimsical lighting effect. (You may want to have a dot painting party though, or your fingers may end up perpetually clamped in the position of holding a wee paintbrush.)
