We just finished a new deck addition to the back of our house and we were really happy with the farmhouse style rustic looking results. I found a cute picnic table at a neighbors yard sale, that looked perfect on our new deck, but we needed some little odds and ends to make the table look warm and welcoming. I went searching the internet for some candle ideas and I found this mason jar knotted lantern idea by Jm’s Vlog on YouTube, and I knew these lanterns were going to look perfect on our deck.
Materials For Lanterns:
- Twine
- Seashells
- Scissors
- Decorative sand
- A mason jar
- A tea light candle
Directions:
In this mason jar knotted lantern idea by Jm’s Vlog on YouTube, you will learn to make these cute candles in a few easy steps. You start by making your knotted twine basket for the mason jar.
Then, you just follow the simple instructions in the video tutorial on how to tie the knots that make this lovely twin basket around the mason jar and glue the loose ends at the bottom of your jar.
This lantern is going to look so cute on our new deck with our lovely second-hand picnic table. The sift glow of the new lantern really brings a lot of warmth to our new outdoor deck area. The sand and seashells really complete this summer theme we currently have going and makes the perfect backdrop for our fish and gumbo parties.
