Vintage Photo Mason Jar




I love how Cori made her own wedding centerpieces by placing black and white photos into vegetable oil-filled mason jars. The oil preserves the photograph and gives it an aged yellowing effect. She added a sprig of dried lavender to make it smell nice.

  1. I've also seen the mason jars with the neon light from glow sticks. I wonder if you could combine these two elements to light up the photo?

  3. I love this idea. But I have a question. If you take the picture out will it ruin the photo or if you leave it in will it ruin it?

  10. I am betting if you put some Lavender Essential Oil or Tea Tree Oil ..maybe a teaspoon or less in the quart of oil, it will last a long time... Great idea...

  15. I was thinking this might be a great idea for a family reunion...make them for centerpieces, but then turning it into a game to see who can recognize the most people or families.
