    My small kitchen cabinets have non-adjustable shelfs requiring many items to be put in smaller containers. These jars would be perfet to replace boxes, etc that don’t fit the shelfs.

      Thank you for your post. I so love the Red White and Blue and meaning it holds. I would use mine for a get together with family and friends for a special eatable gift for them to take home on Memorial Day or the Fourth of July. Thank you

    I would use them to sort crafts, buttons, and more in addition to storing foods like grains and legumes as I am also an avid cook.

    Balls jars provide wonderful storage in my kitchen, pantry, sewing room and I like to use them as vases. I use them everywhere! And thanks for the tip on storing strawberries in Ball jars and the link for the frogs.

    Hi Mary,
    I love Ball jars and find them so versatile. I would use them for fairy light jars, canning carrots, storing buttons, etc. These are beautiful and so is your tables and blog.

    These are perfect for a table centerpiece to hold flowers, straws, candy, sparklers, to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary.

    The canning jars would be great for root beer floats, jelly, jams and flowers look so sweet in them. Possibilities are endless.

    Getting ready for the patriotic celebration especially for this year. So happy to see these and all of your great ideas. Love the wooden tops and the flower frogs! Would love to add these to my red,, white and blue. Thanks for the opportunity

    I am retired and have been wanting to learn how to preserve by canning and these beautiful jars would be a great way to start!

    I’ve followed your blog for years now. Every post is so beautifully photographed and inspiring. I could never have as many pieces to duplicate your beautiful tablescapes, but I love looking at them. The jars would be used for yogurt parfaits and for lemonade for the July 4th. But flower arrangements are another choice. I pinned the flower arrangement with the blue hydrangeas taken from above. I wanted to be able to see all the flowers so I can add them to my garden. I so enjoy seeing your post in my email. I know it’s time to just relax and enjoy some beauty. Thank you!

    I have bought Ball Jars specifically for canning purposes but like your article I have found many more uses for them. The new jars would be great for July 4th cocktails and flowers.

  13. Susan VanOsdal
    May 11, 2026 at 6:51 am

    These are very sweet jars. I’d use them as vases for the 4th of July, then can some nice jellies in them after that. I’m a long-time subscriber, too.

    I’ve been using Ball jars for years. Last week I filled them with bouquets to give away for May Day. Love your ideas and photos.

  17. May 11, 2026 at 7:13 am

    I use Ball jars for storing food all the time and also for crafts! Your posts are always so beautiful! Gives me hope that someday I will be near a body of water and in a warmer climate!

  18. May 11, 2026 at 7:15 am

    I pinned the strawberry frose, the basil pesto and the hot pepper jelly although I could’ve easily pinned them all!

  19. Jennifer H
    May 11, 2026 at 7:17 am

    I love how they come out with these decorative designs. This star design could be used for different celebrations such as a birthday, Halloween or new years in addition to being patriotic.

    May 11, 2026 at 7:18 am

    Oh Mary…I too have a love for mason jars and according to Hubby have way too many but really, who can have too many jars! I would use them as cups for summer drinks, as vases and in my canning adventures. As usual I fell down the rabbit hole and opened each of your recipe pages so an hour later I finished another delightful blog! Thank you for sharing your creativity! Have a great day. Peace.

    • Cindy Lance
      May 11, 2026 at 8:06 am

      I love the star design on the jars will look beautiful on my serving table for the upcoming 250th celebration.
      They also look nice as a utensil server, and also for festive centerpieces for flowers and tea lights.

    Mary, I am a canner. I have Ball jars in all sizes for all the different things that I can. These are beautiful, and definitely would be used for canning my chili sauce or salsa. Thank you for the beautiful blog !

  22. Christie
    May 11, 2026 at 7:21 am

    I did also Pin a few of the ideas. Some such as the pepper jelly I already had pinned and made( great by the way) and candles but others I don’t and want to try. Thank you.

    I also pinned the strawberry parfait in the jar :)

    I pinned the pesto recipe (and several others). The mason jar dessert has become a family favorite which I make often!

    I love how Ball has changed with the times and has come up with so many fun ways to use their jars! Definitely great for flowers with the frog, deserts and drinks, and I always make my salad dressing in a Ball jar-which looks great when you transport them to a party.
