When I think about the summer and the 4th of July, my mind goes to visions of the beach! Neutral colors and texture! So with that on my mind, here is my beach version of our
4th of July Apothecary Jars…
I wanted to capture the feeling of summer in this festive set of 4th of July Apothecary Jars. They are filled with beach sand {craft tip: each one has a can inside the jars so I would not have to use as much sand! }. You could even fill them with your own collection of seashells collected on family vacations!
The U.S.A. letters are brown, metal tags that I found in the dollar section of Michaels. They are the perfect accent! I simply attached them with jute twine.
Each Apothecary Jar is finished with a whimsical burlap bow. I love the texture burlap brings in and it can go with any decor. I even added a little starfish to complete the beachy vibe I was going with!
Can’t you just feel the sand between your toes and see the fireworks across the ocean…
We have loved creating our Apothecary Jars for the seasons and holidays. Why don’t you check out our “BOO!”, “JOY!”, Fall, and Valentine’s versions!

I love the jars on top of the painted wooden pedestals. I was wondering why Jane keeps buying them at the auction. Who knew? Everybody but me.

Those are so fantastic! You gals are always coming up with such great projects and I love that they are patriotic and yet still “neutral”. I would keep them out all summer long. 🙂 Thanks for sharing them at Inspiration Friday!

These are so cute! I love the burlap bows on them!
These are so cool. I saw them at Christmas time and put them on my To Do list but I was thinking I had a couple more months before doing them. Now I have to get them done today for the 4th! Nice job.

What color of spray paint did you use? I love them and want to make some but not sure what color of spray paint you used. It’s the perfect color.
Thanks so much Jen! Those were painted with Rustoleum Heirloom White. It is a creamy white and looks amazing! Have awonderful night! Bonnie
This is absolutely adorable! Thanks for sharing this! You guys always have the best ideas!! =D
Are the jars made or bought? Love them! Where do I get them?
Cindy » We actually made the jars! If you check under our Apothecary tab you will find all the posts on using them for different holidays, as well as the posts on creating these!
Did you buy the jars/with lid somewhere or have it from a pantry item? Are they glad or plastic? What about the candleholders? Are they from a Hobby store and are they wood and painted?
