Back to School Striped Mason Jar Teacher Gift

Hi friends. This summer has just flown by, I can’t believe it’s already back to school time! Fall is just around the corner.

I love to have my two boys greet their new teachers for the year on the first day of school with a little gift to say hello and I’m so glad to be in your class. This Back to School Striped Mason Jar Teacher Gift is sure to be a hit on the first day. Not only is it cute, it’s functional too. The teacher can use it for organization for all their favorite supplies.

Supplies:

– mason jars
– DecoArt Americana home decor chalky finish paint (everlasting white, romance red, delicate yellow, legacy blue)
– DecoArt Americana créme wax
– clean soft white cloth
– foam brushes
– painters tape
– sandpaper (optional)

I am not showing a step by step tutorial today, but there is a full tutorial on how to make these super fun striped mason jars HERE on my blog. Feel free to head over and see how easy they are to make.

I love how easy these jars are to make with my DecoArt Americana home decor chalky finish paints.

I chose to stick with a color palette that reminded me of school so I chose primary colors. My youngest son is headed off to first grade this year so it is a perfect color combo for his teacher.

Once you have all your cute Back to School Striped Mason Jars painted it’s time to fill them with a few cute supplies.

You have a few choices. You can fill them with office supplies, individually wrapped candies for the teacher to snack on, or some $5 gift cards to places like Sonic – Starbucks – or Target.
