Ode to the Mason Jar

Of late, I've become rather enamored with the Mason Jar.

Functional, nostalgic & beautiful.

I think my Mason Jar affinity started when M & I ate at at Bandidas Taqueria for the first time. (If you live in Vancouver, or plan on visiting, check it out - amazing vegetarian, home style Mexican food). The restaurant serves water in Mason Jars - I thought it was so cute. Since then, M & I have talked about getting replacing our glassware with Mason Jars - when we finally find a permanent home.

But - I digress.

I think Mason Jars with a thick white candle inside could be a really simple, elegant centerpiece, and would go well with our textured, rustic theme.
