… and happy Saturday!
It’s been a long week, right? Felt like it would never end. And here in Chicago it was a week filled with highs (can you say 80+ degree weather) and lows (can you say minus 40 degree weather) …
But the weekend has arrived. And we all survived.
* Phew *
And whether you’ve been dealing with deadlines at work, or crazy end-of-year kid schedules …
…or a combination of both …
… it’s time to sit back. Relax. And enjoy a few moments of peace and quiet to yourself before the house wakes up.
So pour yourself another cup of coffee. Or, if you’re like me, tea. And spend some of that alone time with your online friends.
I promise we’ll be quiet.
No screaming. No demands. No deadlines. And definitely no fixing breakfast …
And if you’re looking for some light {and quiet} reading to go along with that coffee ~ or tea ~ look no further. While you were dealing with deadlines at work and carting the kids to and fro to soccer and dance class, I was busy compiling my many varied and various mason projects into a gallery. That’s right. All in one place. Where you can peruse – and click through – with just one click. By clicking here …
And if that’s not enough for you …
… if you’re a glutton for even more mason jar ideas …
… then you can check out some Pinterest boards devoted to all things mason jars. Like this one. And this one …
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your morning coffee ~ or tea ~ with me. Warmest wishes for a fabulous weekend!
Uh oh. Did I just hear the sound of someone stirring ….?

No…. 40 below? You’re joshing me right? Testing to see if we read the words you write? Then you are going to make a cussing/lying mason jar project and put that tale inside it right?

You are so funny, but I know, you have to grab the time when you can. I’m in Chicago, too. After the rain and cold yesterday, it’s 64 now! Go figure!
Love the painted Mason jars…they would be so cute as vases outside on the patio table. Thanks!
XO,

Awesome, Linda… you’re way more organized than me; my house is like a bomb went off, my daughter just got home from UGA, it’s pouring down rain, and i’m totally overwhelmed with my to-do list for end-of-school and graduation. Is it too early for a glass of wine?? 😉

I love love love the colours on your jars. In fact it inspired me to make a new soap dispenser in turquoise last night. What are you using over the top of the paint???
Have a happy Sunday Linda!

Great idea to create a gallery! That’s gotta be the most intensive collection of mason jar projects by one person ever compiled.

I think that my favourite is the lemon meringue pie jars! Those look heavenly!
Linda – you are officially the Queen of Mason Jars. Love it!
