Candy Jars

• Vintage candy jars filled with old-fashioned favorites make shabby chic party table decorations or favors. You can also display the candy jars on your living room coffee table as a sweet touch. Fill vintage glass candy jars featuring metal lids with an assortment of candies, such as licorice bites, peppermints, swizzle sticks, jelly beans and gumdrops. Tape a heart-shaped paper doily to the front of the jar and wrap a pink satin ribbon into a bow around it for a charming look.
  
  

Candle Jars

• You can transform glass canning jars into eye-catching candle holders in a matter of minutes. Fill 1/4 of the bottom of a jar with small vintage items, such as marbles or buttons. Choose items featuring pastel colors, such as light pink, blue and yellow, as a shabby chic touch. Nestle a tall taper candle into the decor items to create a secure fit. You can also use a vintage jelly jar and votive candle to create a smaller-scale craft.
  
  

Apothecary Jars

• Antique apothecary jars are the ideal places to store and display eye-catching collections. To make a shabby chic style decor piece for a wall shelf or coffee table, fill a clear glass apothecary jar featuring an elegant domed lid with seashells, vintage buttons or beads, or glass marbles. When placed near a window, apothecary jars filled with vibrant sea glass will catch the sunlight. You can fill larger apothecary jars with vintage Christmas ornaments as holiday decor.
  
  

Flower Jars

• Vintage glass jars filled with fresh flowers are shabby chic-inspired alternatives to vases. For an enchanting look, start with a mason jar featuring turquoise blue-tinted glass. Fill the jar with an assortment of pastel-hued flowers, such as pink sweetheart roses or peonies, yellow daisies and lavender hydrangeas. Use the jar vase to add a pop of color to a kitchen table or bedroom vanity.
