Just one simple step: Add a mason jar to it. Here's how I gained Pinterest fame, and it's easy for you to do the same. First, check your scary basement to see if there are piles upon piles of ancient mason jars stashed away somewhere.
Check.
Next, randomly and subtly insert mason jars into your home decor, in both purely decorative and practical ways, take photos, post on your blog, and let the pinners have at it!
Are your toothbrushes too short? Use a mason jar to make them taller!
Does your refrigerator have empty space? Use a mason jar to make your fridge seem fuller.
Distract your husband with a mason jar.
Decorative pillow shams too expensive? Use mason jars to add flair to your bed instead. (I mean, you weren't going to sleep on the decorative pillows anyway, were you?)
Organize your remote controls in an extremely trendy way!
Store OTHER mason jars in a mason jar. Double the jar. Awesome.
Are your Flintstones vitamins too ugly? Store them in a jar. Ta-da! Instant stylish vitamins!
Also, just for practical purposes, instead of storing them in a dingy, scary basement, you can just store them next to your pet bear.
That's it, your easy path to Pinterest fame.
haha…I think I'll pin this :)
I'm guilty of using mason jars to make things cute. I may (or may not) put Qtips in mason jars. Shhh…
hahahah that's hilarious! you forgot to add pieces of burlap. almost every pinterest thing i see these days has burlap, a mason jar and sprigs of evergreen somewhere in there!

YES!! This is hysterical. I adore your sense of humor.
this cracked me up so hard!! but it's so true!
I have to laugh at this, because sometimes it does seem the trick to going viral on Pinterest is adding a) a mason jar, b) chevron or c) both!
My sister's wedding is full of these mason jars and totally inspired from pin interest. I laughed so hard oatmeal nearly came out of my nose. Spot on!
This is hilarious! I bet you had a great time with this. :) We drink out of our mason jars and I put salsa in them too. But making my toothbrushes taller??? I think you're onto something!
Distract your husband...this is hilarious!
Bahahahaha this is too good!!
bahaha you always make me laugh! this is ingeniously perfect!
HAHA this is probably the best thing I've read all week. Too funny!
lmfao!! I love this - Especially your hubby's face with the mason jar - he looks somewhat petrified haha :) I don't even use pinterest. Social media is too much all the time - I can barely handle twitter!!! Girl why do you have SOO MANY mason jars?? LOL - Iva

"Distract your husband with a mason jar." Oh my gosh, this post had me laughing out loud. BUT IT'S SO TRUE! People are obsessed with mason jars, especially if they're tinted an exciting shade of aqua. Bahahaha. Mason jar in mason jar... my goodness.
HA! So funny. And true! I'm one of those suckers who loves a good mason jar pin...guilty!! Xx.
oh my gosh this is hilarious!! ha ha!
It's funny because it's true!!
Rachel, you are a hoot! I am so pinning this!!
What is it about Mason jars? They make everything cuter! I almost bought a Mason jar soap dispenser at Bath and Body Works the other day because it was a Mason jar!!!
You do have a good point about create interest on Pinterest by pinning on-trend material. Too bad I never had on-trend material to pin ; )
Haha I laughed out loud at storing mason jars in mason jars. Also, it is really hard to find wedding centerpiece ideas that do NOT include mason jars.
hahahaha!! I love this so much! You crack me up! I do think mason jars are the coolest...and everyone needs a mason jar coaster from me ;)
Eva Marie
LOVE it! Brilliant! Bhahhahah
Rachel you're a hoot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha I am cracking up at my desk! Mason jars for the win!
CRYING laughing...especially making your toothbrushes taller. And the mason jar in a mason jar, and the ones on the bed...all of them, really.
I was handed down a ton of mason jars. Some vintage I now use for decor. Now I use some for our main cups and love it!!

HA. "Check your scary basement" I'm that person who has NO old cool stuff, it's all old junk. I LOVE the colored jars, or any tinted glass really
haha this is absolutely fantastic! And there is more truth to this post than there should be!
Ha! I don't even think I own a mason jar!
All this time.. I thought it was more complicated that that. Well I'm glad you told me.. I especially like the idea of replacing stupid comfy throw pillows with ancient, old mason jars. Brilliant!
LOL
Oh how this post deliver the mid-Wednesday pick-me-up chuckle that I needed. So very, very true - and remember to add some burlap and a coloured, striped paper straw to the jar for an extra huge dose of Pinterest fame. :D

Haha!
I don't know what it is, but I'm completely fascinated by mason jars. I tend to stockpile when they go on sale at Hobby Lobby or Michael's. I think I may be addicted...
Bahahahahahaa! These are some Mason jar tutorials I could actually pull off!

Haha genius! This is hilarious.
I LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHA!!!
We laugh, but it is kinda true... Dear old Pinterest...

OMG, this is hilarious! and so true! you should submit this to the Onion folks.
haha this was too funny! I love the decorative pillow add ;) You have a new follower by the way!
LOL, I love this so much and am sad that I don't have any mason jars. I think I'm going to buy some and then start storing something like nail polish in them. Or jewelry. (Maybe I shouldn't be sharing my ideas here or someone else will get to it first and steal my pinterest fame!!) -Gina

This is hysterical! I organize estate sales. At a sale last year, we had two women literally fight over a shelf of Mason jars. It was crazy! I guess they were after a bit of that Pinterest fame!
I was not expecting a humorous post but this is hilarious! Also, it's so so so true!
Haha, what a hoot! The funniest thing is, you're right! Mason jars are a huge hit.

I don't have Mason jars, but I do have a lot of old peanut butter jars. Do you think I could still become Pinterest famous? Or is that just too edgy? PS Please don't steal my idea!!
So funny! This made me literally laugh out loud. ;)
Pinning it! Haha!

Haha. You are so right. Mason jars are everything in Pin Land. Thanks for linking up!

So, ummm, what's a mason jar?
How did I never see this post? This is the best thing ever. I need to move my mason jars from the kitchen to my bed ASAP !
hahaha, I love this post. :] I started using mason jars when I moved to WV because they were everywhere and it was so darn convenient for storage! :P I've since lost some of the lids, so those became my new cups for my apartment. :P
