Mason Atlas Jar – Strawberry Jam

~ sproatmeyer

I absolutely love homemade strawberry jam. I usually make the no-freezer kind because we go through it so fast. It’s a cherished childhood memory so whenever I make it, I usually share it with my family too. A bit on the chunky side is best.

The idea started with the fabric and the Mason Atlas Jar die set. When I saw it, I thought of the jam and then the rest of it came together naturally. I colored the jar red with darker shadows on the edges. Then I added the chunks and then the seeds. The highlight was added last but I wish I had planned that beforehand because adding the white after wasn’t as bright.
From the die set, I cut out the jar, lid and tag. I took the fabric and draped it around the lid and taped it down. I then placed that on the jar with foam tape and then added twine and the tag.
