just in time for Valentines day
Cut your hanky into a strip long enough to wrap around (+1/2″) your jar and wide enough to reach from the bottom edge to the ridge where lid would rest.
Use your hot glue gun (carefully!) to glue your lace onto jar. Tuck in the ends so you don’t have a frayed edge showing on the side.
Embellish with twine, ribbon, etc. Also if you want to decorate the lid.. these would be perfect as Valentines gifts filled with chocolate.
That’s all folks! For the ultimate impact do a big group of these and a variety of sizes. If you have an old tray or plate these look so pretty bunched together.
These would be awesome as wedding centerpieces. When the candle is lit it shines through the lace so beautifully! Have fun
Hanging version available for purchase in my Etsy Shop.

I love these, I will definitely be doing this once I get my hands on some old jars!
Beautiful! I found you on craftgawker too. What a fun project! My sister collects jars AND she's getting married soon… I'll have to send this on to her. Thank you for sharing!
I have SO many of these jars laying around, and now I know what to do with them! It will make the perfect centerpiece on my dining room table. Thanks!
These are simply lovely! I found you via Pinterest & featured these on my blog as part of the decor for a precious baby shower! http://www.pinfluence.com/2011/11/03/welcoming-baby-emma-pinterest-style/
