DIY: Date In A Mason Jar!

Hey y’all! I made this for my fiance and I to have in our new apartment. It’s a jar filled with different colored Popsicle sticks that have different date ideas on them! Each color also represents what type of date it would be. For mine: white= just already primed sticks in case we think of new dates, blue = expensive, green = kind of expensive, and yellow = dates for when we’re broke! (haha) I really hope y’all like this! ALSO: I did not actually come up with the idea of date in a mason jar, I saw it on pinterest, but this is MY version of it & these are all my pictures!(littlemissveronicabreanne.tumblr.com)


What you need!

Popsicle Sticks
Three different types of paint
Ribbon (If you want a bow)
FAT Sharpie
Mason Jar
Super Glue
The instructions are pretty simple. So I’m not going to number them. Just divide the Popsicle sticks, paint them the colors you picked, & then write your different date ideas on them! (I put mine in so y’all could see and get some ideas) Shuffle em up, put em in the jar, tie a bow and super glue it, and voila! You have just made a cute little dresser topper! I hope y’all do enjoy this! I worked really hard on it! Have fun y’all!

I love this idea. Jimmy & I can never make decisions on what to do, plus we can be lazy and end up doing the same thing all the time & never get around to things we want to do together.

Definitely going to make this & give it to him as a homecoming gift. I think instead of color coding based on cost, I'll do it by type of date.

You can change it and fit it for yourself! That's why I loved it and yeah I imagine that lazyness can win haha I'm glad you like it.

I didn't even see the image of the date ideas on the sticks before. Gonna have to steal some of those. Just not "go fishing". Jimmy hates fishing =P

They're pretty good. I'm going to do my version of this haha I hope you can share yours on the forum later.

I love this. It makes me want to make one with like different parts of the date... like dinner, activity, then explicit activity XP
Amazing idea!!!!

This is a really cute idea but I would probably use it more for when we're living together or closer to eachother, ya know? Incredibly creative, though. Definetely keeping it in mind.

This is a really cute idea, and there's lots of room for creativity!

I started doing this last week, still coming up with ideas as I go but started painting some of the sticks and writing the ideas on them. It's coming together nicely. By spring I should have the jar completely full to give to him.
