Mason jar lamp

This was the first mason jar lamp I made. You can buy these flame-like light bulbs with a small base to fit inside of this fake candle base. There's an electrical holder already wired with a cord that fits inside. Our local hardware store had these parts. I had to carefully cut out a side hole at the bottom to put the cord through. Otherwise it would go through a hold in the lid then a hole in the glass jar. Not what I wanted to do. I want to keep the jar whole. It's an antique and I love all its bubbles!

    1. Loved looking at your blog. How do we connect? I guess we need an icon like the blogs I have on my right side. Mmmnnn.....I'll have to work on that. I'm pretty good with Photoshop.
      Your resolution for 2014 are super. I'm after great health and lots of sewing fun.
