You can use a Pallet or any other backdrop. It could be wood, a chalkboard, an old door .. anything goes. We have seen them hanging on window shutters and lots of other household items.

The best way to work out if the backdrop will be right for your project is to check how easy it will be to attach the Mason Jars. To hang, you can use clamps as shown in the above version 

Here’s an example of a Recycled Shutter that has a lovely distressed look. This is great inspiration.

We love how you can display your Mason Jars on all sorts of materials. We found this idea on Etsy.

Mason Jars also look delightful with flowers, this simple look will brighten up any room. Put decent space between your rows for extra impact. Found on ‘Put It In A Jar’
