buffalo plaid mason jar

If you’re looking for the perfect jar decor to transition from holiday to holiday, then THIS. IS. IT. And even better, no painter’s tape for this one! I decided to try out a few methods of getting a rustic, watercolor looking buffalo plaid. I’m happy to report that I have found my favorite way to paint buffalo plaid. PERIOD!!!

For this project, I chose to use chalk paints by Dixie Belle. I’ll provide a supply list & instructional video below!

Here’s what you need to give this buffalo plaid jar a try:

• Mason Jar (I used a quart size)
• Chalk Paint (colors used “Fluff” white, “Caviar” black, & “Driftwood” gray by Dixie Belle)
• 1in foam brushes
• Paint brush
• Smaller detail brush
• Sand paper
• Rubbing Alcohol+Rag to clean glass

Well, what do you think??!! Pretty simple right? And check out the pumpkin sign I did with orange colors using the same technique.

You can’t tell me that doesn’t look pretty cool! WAY easier than messing with all that painter’s tape! I’m definitely SOLD & will not be pulling out the tape ever again haha! I also, did the cutest gray plaid sign HERE! Basically you can work with lots of color palettes using this technique! I hope you’ll give it a try!
