Mason jars are all the rage right now and I have to admit, I am a huge fan of them. I use them all over the house; from organizing craft supplies to using as vases for flowers. I thought it would be fun to have a DIY Mason Jar Caddy that could hold a few Mason jars for different things. This caddy was made out of a piece from an 1890’s organ I picked up for free last summer. I have been using other pieces of the organ in different areas of our home.

Supplies Used To Make This DIY Mason Jar Caddy:
Hazel & Ruby Tissue Paper
Hazel & Ruby Stencil Masks
Old Boards
Brad Nailer
Table Saw
White Paint
Sandpaper
Handles
To make this caddy, I used an organ piece with fun details and an old board.
The sides of the caddy were the organ piece and the end pieces were cut from the old board.
To see how we make our easy wood boxes from scrap wood, head HERE.
I painted the caddy white and distressed it a bit to bring out all the details on the wood.
I used the Candy Apple and White Polka Dot Tissue from Hazel and Ruby to add a pop of color on the inside of the caddy. It is fun to add little surprises to pieces when you can. It brings a lot of personality when you least expect it.
The outside of the caddy had perfect insets for words so I used the Brush Script Alpha Stencil Mask to make the words “bloom” and “gather” on the outside of the caddy.
After I painted the words, I went over them with some sand paper.
The caddy can hold four large Mason Jars perfectly!
I spray painted some handles we had in the garage black and added them to the ends of the caddy. This way, it is easy to move around.
The tissue paper adds that pop of pattern and color. When you take the Mason Jars out, you get a little something extra bright and cheerful. Love it!
It is a perfect caddy for the dining room table. I will use this for so many things; straws, markers, pencils, skewers, serving caddy, etc.
The word “gather” is fitting for so many things.
This Mason Jar Caddy turned out great. We will get a lot of use out of it. It makes me so happy that the 1890 organ is still around and making fun pieces for our home.

Thank you Beverly!
This is so great! I’m glad you used the Hazel & Grace reusable stencils… I have been thinking about trying them but have been nervous because I’m so unfamiliar with them. Love seeing you use them in your DIY!
They are easy to work with!
Haha! So apparently I can’t type! Just now saw that I put Hazel and Grace instead of Ruby… pretty sure having kids makes you lose your mind a little! Sorry about that.
So funny! I knew what you meant! Kids can do that to you sometimes. 😉
This is so cute! I love that you are using an organ to create other pieces. That pop of polka dot paper is such a great idea.
Thank you Erin!
This turned out really nice! Those Hazel & Grace stencils are something I need to try.
You should Bonnie. They are great to work with.
So pretty! And such a great re-purposing idea. Thanks for sharing!

Really a nice piece of work. I guess the letters needed sandpaper to dull them a bit? Thanks for posting.
Thanks!
