Wood block DIY’s are my absolute fave. There is some­thing so sat­is­fy­ing about being able to cre­ate some­thing unique and qual­i­ty for your home with­out hav­ing to hunt down crazy com­pli­cat­ed sup­plies. This rusty wire mason jar was the per­fect way to add a touch of rus­tic fall decor to my home with­out hav­ing to do just that.

I already had most of these sup­plies lay­ing around my house, and I wil­ing to bet you prob­a­bly do too.

Here is whatcha need for this per­fect lit­tle piece of rus­tic fall decor…

Supplies for Rusty Wire Mason Jar Wood Block

• Wood chunk (mine is about 15″ tall)
• Nails
• Ham­mer
• Rusty wire
• Stain
• Flo­ral Pick
• Mason Jar tem­plate (I googled an image and placed dots along the outline)

I began by stain­ing my wood with one of my favorite col­ors of Min­wax, called Spe­cial Wal­nut and taped my tem­plate to the board.

The next step of the rusty wire mason jar process unfold­ed by wrap­ping wire around 1 nail of your choos­ing and ran­dom­ly stretch­ing it from one nail to anoth­er in a criss cross type pattern.

The more rusty wire used, the more defined your jar will become! I even went around the out­side perime­ter of the nails to cre­ate a defined out­line as well. The most enjoy­able part of this rusty wire mason jar project is watch­ing it take shape. 

I should also point out, that the options are lim­it­less with this type of project! The shape can be var­ied eas­i­ly based on your template!

I am in love with the mix of tex­tures here. From the wood and the wire to the flo­rals! Sun­flow­ers are the per­fect fall tran­si­tion­al foliage for fall!
