Question – What do you do when one of your son, really digs pickles ?
Answer – But ofcourse, get ready to recycle those mason jars !!
With such little effort, we managed to upcycle these two dull glass jars, into modern vases.
Here’s a step by step tutorial of how to achieve the modern look.

Very pretty! I’m loving gold lately.
Tracy – my home decor palette does NOT have any gold in it but I liked the idea of giving the edge of a shabby chic vase, a tiny gold edge. what should have been a tiny edge – turned into a fat strip -but I liked it so much that I decided the next one should have maximum coverage in gold. Really pleased with how it sits in with my other shabby chic bird houses and lanterns.
They look so classy Naush and you video tutorial was great
I know right ! Frankly, the audio quality of my video – sucks !! But I do see an improvement in the videography angles and such. Thank you for watching the video hon. These Jars look really stunning in real rather than virtual – we’d not had the sun for 3 days hence had to make do with indoor lights 😦
Great idea for upcycling glass food jars, Naush!
Thank you Marie. so glad you liked it.
I’m surprised you don’t have a little store to sell all these goodies you make! Great idea with the pickle jar!
I know right ??!! I love the look of the pickle jar. Gold is not at all in my home decor palette but I decided I wanted a contrast to the grainy chalk paint texture and I’m glad I decided to play with the gold. Looks much better in the ‘real’ – We haven’t had any sun for 3 days hence was difficult to photograph them. Thank you for dropping by sheryl.
This reminds me so much of when my Mum used to decorate our glass milk bottles and use them as vases. My Nan (who lived with us after my Dad died) would be annoyed at her because the milkman offered a refund on the empties! Haha, thanks for the memories and the lovely ideas. I will definitely recycle my next empty glass jar like this, in memory of my Mum. #mmbc
Oh I remember those days, Ann. The milk and beverage bottles were recycled !! Bought back memories too. Nice to “meet” you Ann.
Your vases are lovely! What a wonderful recycling project!
Thank you Mickie. so glad you liked it.
I had to check where you live because that No Name yellow brand is sold here in Canada. I even thought it was only sold here.
They even did a campaign last year where everything.

Hi Jackie. The golden color acrylic paint is “Pebeo” Studio Acrylics (high viscosity) – I haven’t seen it at Micheals. But we bought ours from Dubai. My photographs are not doing justice to the ACTUAL color. Its a beautiful mat golden. Not yellow. Thank you for dropping by Jackie.
Great upcycle. I love taking something that some think is useless and making it useful again. These are adorable. Thanks for sharing at #omhgww. I will socialize your article if buttons are provided.
Thank you Clearissa. Really appreciate it.
I love upcycling my glass jars; this is another great way! Very nice results.
I too, upcycle my glass mason jars for storage – this is the first time, I decided to make a statement piece by showcasing it. Glad you liked it Kathy.

I really love these vases! I have a son who loves pickles as well and so I have a recycling bin filled with pickle jars. I need to start saving these things for projects! Thanks for sharing and linking up.
