I have had that cheese box for about a year now. It was given to me and I finally figured out how I wanted to display it – with mason jars!

If you are looking for an old wooden cheese box, I would look at thrift stores or antique stores. Another option is to use a Mason Jar Wooden Box. I have seen them at Hobby Lobby as well.

I used 2 different sized Mason Jars in this centerpiece. Since 3 of the large ones didn’t fit, I was able to just do 2 large ones with one smaller one in the middle. Depending on the box, judge what size jars you need.

I also just had to use the cute little fox I got at Hobby Lobby. It looks perfect with this centerpiece.

The flowers I used are from Hobby Lobby as well. I found one large bunch of fall flowers for $20. It was plenty to fill the jars and I even had some left over!

Now for the instructions….

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

INSTRUCTIONS:

Step 1: Make sure your Mason Jars are clean. I used rubbing alcohol on the outside to make sure. Just put a bit on a cotton ball and rub down the outside of the jars.

Step 2: Paint your Mason Jars with your white chalk paint. Don’t put it on too thick or you will be doing tons of sanding later. I applied 2 coats.

Step 3: After the paint has fully dried, take rough sandpaper and go over all the raised areas of the jar. I even took paint off around the jars where the glass bends.

I wanted them to look like they have been around for a while and scuffed up.

Step 4: Spray the Mason Jars with a matte non-yellowing top coat. This will keep the pain sealed.

Step 5: Wrap twine around the mouth of the jar and tie in a little bow.
