Flag Mason Jar Candle Holder
Let’s celebrate America by making Flag Mason Jar Candle Holders. This patriotic centerpiece beautifully combines functionality and style. Like so many other patriotic holiday ideas, you will be proud to display it on many occasions throughout the summer!
For some reason, I find red, white and blue decor something you can use all through the summer not just on Memorial Day, the 4th of July or Labor Day.
I enjoy driving through communities’ flag-lined streets or families proudly displaying flags on their homes. Besides charming, it brings out the patriotic spirit in us all!
Flag Mason Jar Craft
What I love about this mason jar craft, is that it can be a double-duty decoration – it can also be used as a vase. Just add flowers!
These flag jars also make great gifts for birthdays or hostess gifts. Craft them for friends and gift them on birthdays – everyone will welcome this gift with its flag designs and unique charm.
Light it up, kick back, and enjoy the cozy glow as it adds a splash of Americana flair to your decor. Let’s get that good energy flowing with the Flag Mason Jar Candle Holder!

Flag Mason Jar Supplies:
Here is where you can purchase all the supplies you need to make this great flag craft.
- Red Transparent Mason Jar (from Joann Fabric’s)
- 2 Mini Flags
- Jute
- Spray Mount
Flag Candle Instructions:
- Take a pointy object like manicure scissors, seem riper or a nail file and slide the point under each flag staple.
- Lift slowly to remove the staple without damaging the flag. Spray the back of each flag with the spray mount and carefully apply to the mason jar.
- Try to match the seams on both sides, but they might not be perfect – that’s okay!
- Wrap the jute string around the top of the jar a couple of times and tie in a knot.

These are too cute! I have a bunch of those little flags in a box in my basement… time to dig them out!
Great, Krista! This Flag Mason Jar couldn’t be more simple. They look really pretty glowing at night. Enjoy!
I’m dropping by from the SITS Girls link party. I love this idea — and have pinned it and tweeted it! Next I’m going to make a flock of them!!
I have a link party that I am trying to grow. I invite you to share this idea (and a couple of others) at my Grandma Ideas Sharing Time link up at http://grandmaideas.com. I think my readers would LOVE this idea, too.
My linkup is open Wednesday through Friday at midnight. I hope to see you there!
All the best,
Nina
Hi Nina! Thanks for pinning and tweeting about my Flag Mason Jar! I will try to stop over to your link party!
So simple and so clever! These are the best kind of projects. It would make a darling vase too. Thank you for linking up at Family Joy Blog Link-Up Party. Have a great week!
this is awesome – even a craft-challenged person like me can do this! Oh, and our neighborhood grocery store just reduced all of their little flags, perfect! Blessings!
My son is leaving for the Marine Corps soon and these would be perfect for his going away party. What size jars and flags did you use?
Thanks. I was reading this post and thought – Father’s Day is coming. Instead of a flag why not decoupage the kids’ face to the front! Is my tiredness showing? Dumb idea? I don’t know but still I think it sounds neat.
my other thought was to take a unscented candle and put some kind of essential oil on it that keeps mosquitos away and adding those to the jar for fathers day…. I’d use it!
I know it says Mini flag but I can’t seem to find one that’ll wrap all the way around the Mason jar what size flag do I use
Hi April, I used two flags on my jar. I think it depends on the size of the jar as well. So if one flag is too small and two is too big then possibly trim the strips side of the flags down so you can use two flags but they don’t overlap. I hope that makes sense. Let me know if you need more help.
