1. Halloween Painted Mason Jars
From eighteen25
Boo! These painted Halloween mason jars make an adorable Halloween centerpiece for your kitchen table or coffee table. They are a fun and easy project to try before the holiday. Swirl the inside of the mason jars with white paint, then use painter’s tape on the outside to create polka dots and stripes before painting black. Some sandpaper to distress the paint and some cute orange accents make them Halloween ready.
2. Mason Jar Mummies
From It All Started with Paint
This brilliant blogger found an incredibly easy way to make these awesome mummy mason jars! Paint you mason jars with a base color then, once dry, stretch a bunch of elastic bands around the jar to make your mummy bandages. Two little wandering eyes complete the new mummy mason jar. This craft is easy to make yourself, or have some fun making them with your kids.
3. Mason Jar Witches
From Smart School House
These spooky mason jar witches make a fun Halloween decoration. In the day time, they look super cute sitting on a shelf or front hall table, and they flicker in the night for a spooky surprise. The mason jar itself gets filled with some green cellophane and a flameless candle right in the middle. Top it with an easy-to-make felt witch hat and you have your mason jar witch ready to display.
4. Mason Jar Pumpkins
From The 36th Avenue
Halloween and Thanksgiving are the perfect times to make these beautiful pumpkin mason jars for a centerpiece or for gifting. A little bit of orange paint, some cardstock leaves and vines, and a stained wooden peg turn into these adorable pumpkin jars. Then all you have left to do is fill them up with your favorite fall time goodies or arrange them on your table.
5. Mason Jar Ghosts
From No.2 Pencil
You can knock out these super easy and quick mason jar ghosts in just a few minutes and reuse them for years and years. Spray paint cleaned mason jars white then attach two little googly eyes. Pop an LED tea light in the jar to transform them into the cutest Halloween lanterns. They flicker like real candles, but you don’t have to worry about the jar getting too hot and cracking.
6. Halloween Mason Jar Lanterns
From Stylish Trendy
The perfect accessories for your Halloween party are these do it yourself Halloween glass mason jar lanterns. Four simple steps and a few regular craft supplies are all it takes to create these darling little decorations.

A little bow around the rim and a twinkling tea light takes these jars up a notch.

11. Jar O Lanterns
From Martha Stewart
Give a great little gift or leave candies out for display in these super cute Jar-o’-Lanterns! The insides of the mason jars are painted with orange and yellow enamel paint, then the outside is decorated with a sweet little jack-o’-lantern face. For the handle, just make a lasso shape with some wire and loop the ends around the jar’s mouth. Fill with some wrapped candies, candy corn, or any other treats your kids would enjoy.
12. Halloween Cookies in a Jar
From Living Locurto
Halloween cookies in a jar are great homemade gifts for teachers and friends! It is an incredibly fun project to do with kids, especially because the recipe calls for mixing the ingredients up with your hands. What kid doesn’t like to get a little messy? The M&M cookies are crazy yummy, and the printable decals are to die for. Tie some Halloween ribbon around the top of the jar and you have the perfect, thoughtful gift.
13. Candy Corn Scarecrow
From Housing a Forest
Candy corn is such a fun fall treat. I love each of the white, orange, and yellow layers, and it always looks so festive around Halloween. Gift a full jar of candy corn to teachers, friends, or your children in this sweet scarecrow mason jar. You can use mostly recycled materials to make them and they are a blast to make with the kids too. The plastic cup scarecrow hat is so creative!
