Peeps Mason Jars for Easter

How to Make Painted Peeps Mason Jars for Easter: Mason Jar Craft Idea for Easter. 

Mason Jar Craft for Easter: Painted Chick Mason Jar

I have to admit a super secret truth here: I’ve been getting painted mason jar ideas from nail art. Like these painted and distressed peeps mason jars for Easter. I first spotted this design on a nail … 😉

 

When you think about it, it makes sense. Nail beds are very similar in shape to the front of a mason jar. They’re just a smaller scale canvas.

So when I Google image searched ‘Easter nail art’ and these cutest little chicks in eggs popped up, I couldn’t resist. They looked just like Peeps to me. So I decided to add pink and a blue painted peeps mason jars too.

Step 1: Start with a mason jar painted white. I gave mine two coats of white primer. Let dry between coats and dry overnight before proceeding to next step.

Step 2: Start with the most amazing Washi tape ever: zig zag Washi. I found mine at the craft store.

    I love your blog. I always read. But I did not!! Once!! Last year on the duck egg blue jars which have been all over this year. So I’m so pleased you refeatured the link to the post and how to recreate them. I felt silly so excited only to see it was featured by you a year ago!!! See what happens if I skip just one post?!! Quite a big deal. Heehee. I really like the addition of the peep to the other two. It’s a cheerful hobby. And I did do daisies except they needed a reddish orange center with yellow pedals on a turquoise jar just because of the drapes it is near. Oh so simple because of your ideas!!!
    I wondered though why you’ve switched to primer as your base and not chalk paint.

      Thanks so much! I’ve found the primer works better when I’m taping off the jars. Even with the chalk paint and the washi tape, it was pulling off the paint and driving me crazy! But with primer as my white base coat I’m not having that problem anymore! Okay, sometimes a few pulling up of paint but nothing like acrylic and chalk paint!

    Where did you find the zig zag washi tape? I’ve looked everywhere to no avail.
