Have you ever looked at a plain glass mason jar and wished they looked a little prettier?
Maybe it is just me. I use mason jars constantly in my kitchen, and not just for canning. Mason jars hold my sourdough starter. They organize my sugar and pasta. They even hold sweet treats or homemade bath salts for gifts during the holiday season.

Sometimes regular mason jar lids just don't look special enough. I want things to still look homey and fun. That's why I started making mason jar fabric covers.
These little covers are simple to sew, but make a BIG difference and are an upgrade to those plain jars. They make them cute plus they are practical and reusable!
I've used them for everything including keeping dust out of my kitchen staples to giving pretty mason jar presents a little homemade touch.
Since I love them so much, I thought you might too! Let's get you making your own easy mason jar covers.
