What a GREAT idea!!! I’m eventually going to have lots of baby jars and they would work really well with tea lights (I think…I’ll have to see if the mouth of the jars is wide enough).

The heat should go out the top of the jar since there is not a lid. If you are like me though, once you get a concern in your head it keeps you from enjoying it, so…. you can get those little battery operated tea lights that flicker like a real flame. You wouldn’t have to worry about heat, or little fingers wanting to play with the light.

Love the hanging jar tutorial…great photos to help the visual crafter. I love candle glow at night on the patio…am going to use this project!

As another poster noted, glass will break if it gets too hot, but it is more an uneven heating that will break the glass. To avoid shards underfoot, add a layer of sand under the candle.

These are so charming! I was thinking of making something like this for use in my wedding reception thanks for the helpful instructions.

Forgot to mention that it nearly cost me nothing. Had the wire in my craft box, found mason jars on the side of the road being thrownt out. So i only bought candles for 5$!!!! Wonderful!

Hi,

I made this DIY for my balcony (I live in the upper apartment of a duplex)….At night when I am out there with all the candles, people actually stop and stare and comment….Thanks for the great idea!
