Simple Red, White and Blue Table Decor

Add a little red, white and blue to your home.

You can't beat this color combination in the summer.

And team it up with a mason jar-- it's a win!

 I love decorating with mason jars.

I grabbed a couple empty wide mouth jars and painted them up.

I'm using the 2oz chalk paints put out by Americana. 

Everlasting and Vintage.

In the fall I used the same chalk paints and painted pumpkins for a table centerpiece. 

The Vintage color is more of a gray/blue, 

so I mixed in some acrylic royal blue to get a richer blue color.

They turned out great! 

I just left them as is and didn't sand to distress like I usually do.

 You could paint up 3 jars in red, white and blue and 

line them up on a table runner for your centerpiece.

That would look so cute on this striped runner.

I have this 2 jar size box on my kitchen table for flowers.

 It's similar to our milk bottle caddy and 5 mason jar caddy.

To make a box that will fit 2 jars, the inside box dimension needs to be 7 1/2" x 4".

I made up a bunch of these 2 jar boxes 

for a PTA teacher appreciation luncheon a few years back.

I just love the silver handles on the sides.

Added the red carnations to finish the look.

Here's to red, white and blue!
