Who would love a beautiful DIY mason jar candle?

Here's a wonderful DIY holiday gift that's quite easy to do yet looks so beautiful. I'd love to have these all around the house. I'm also fortunate that we're literally surrounded by pine trees. I don't love the pine needles all over the floors in my house but I do love the scent of pine and I can literally just go outside to get some pine branches for this fabulous craft.

  19. This is a great idea & perfect for holiday gifts! I like the idea of just adding pine needles, as i think the added pine oil would be overwhelming at least for me.
