This pretty LOVE mason jar centerpiece would make a pretty display on a table or your kitchen counter for Valentine's Day or year-round. It uses this pack of mini doilies in five different colors to decorate the front of the jars as well as to make delicate doily flowers to fill them with. The flowers are simple to make and the entire centerpiece can be made in under an hour!

Start with four pint mason jars. Add a mini paper doily and a burlap heart shape to the front of each jar with a little hot glue around the back edges.

To make the flowers, stack six mini doilies on top of each other. I like to alternate between two different colors (this pack of doilies has five pretty colors to choose from).

Poke a floral wire (I used 20 gauge wire) through the stack of six doilies and poke it back through again. Twist the wire around itself to form a stem. Cut off some of the end of the stem with wire cutters to make it shorter if needed.

Form the flower by starting with the doily at the top of the stack and pinching it upwards. Continue with each of the doilies underneath until you have a pretty flower shape. Repeat to make as many flowers as you want for your centerpiece. I made 2-3 per jar, and varied the colors for each of them.
