Vintage mason jars are one of my most favorite things! I was very fortunate to get my grandmother's canning jars after she passed away--- some of them even still have the little handwritten labels on them she made ("83 TOM" for instance :) ) and I love those even more. Wonderful post!
I love mason jars. Once I had a whole set for my drinking glasses. The versatility, beauty, and shape of these pieces lend to their use and admiration! Fantastic post!
Love the new look, and great post! Mason jars are really so versatile!
