I thought the ever popular Mason Jars would be perfect for the top of the desk. My stash is ever growing and with my love for glitter, it's the perfect addition of color with the added bonus of functionality.
The project itself was very simple, did not take long at all, and the only supplies needed were glitter paint and mini circular sponges. I found both at Michael's and used Martha Stewart's line which I find to be the best quality.
I painted the glass by dabbing the glitter around the jar evenly using 3 coats (waiting 30 minutes in between each coat).
Here, I simply used a cupcake stencil for the heart Mason Jar.
Et voila! The perfect desk accessories. I will be adding another DIY project for the wall above my desk so stay tuned for the final look!

I absolutely love the glitter! I have mason jars on my craft room table, but I'll have to spruce them up a bit. I just bought Ellen's book - can't wait to dive in!
