How to Make Your Farmhouse Decor Buzz with the best Bee Accents

 

Hello Everyone, I’m Lisa with Crafting With Mimi, and member of the Bowdabra design team! Are you a fan of bumblebees and farmhouse decor? If so, this DIY project is perfect for you!

I recently crafted this adorable shelf sitter using a mason jar cutout from Dollar Tree and some of their cute fabric. To add a charming touch, I fashioned a bow using some beautiful Bowdabra ribbon and other supplies with my trusty mini Bowdabra. Follow along as I guide you through this fun, buzz-worthy DIY project.

Feel free to adjust or add any additional embellishments to make it your own

Farmhouse decor

Supplies:

Chunky Mason jar cutout from Dollar Tree

Dollar Tree bumble bee fabric, yellow fabric

Bowdabra bees and blossoms ribbon

Buffalo check ribbon

Button

Honey dipper (purchased from Hobby Lobby)

Modpodge and hot glue

Jute

White paint

Peel and stick letters

Bowdabra bow maker

Bowabra bow wire

 

Instructions:
 First, take off the jute and metal piece from the top of the Mason jar. Then, paint the Mason jar white and allow it to dry.
Next, rip or cut your bee fabric to fit your Mason jar, allowing enough fabric to wrap around the sides.
Use ModPodge to adhere the bee fabric to the front and sides of the Mason jar.
Now, wrap yellow fabric around the top of the jar and hot glue into place. Wrap some jute around the neck of the jar a few times and tie a knot in front.  Leave tails long.
Make your bow using Bowdabra or mini Bowdabra

Start by putting a piece of ribbon or wire in the center slot and tuck the ends under while making the bow.

Next, insert your bee ribbon design side up into the Bowdabra.  Twist the ribbon in the middle and form your first loop.  Repeat for any additional loops.  Add the Buffalo check ribbon in the same fashion on top of that to form second bow.

Finally, Secure the bow together by bringing up the ribbon from the slot and tying a tight knot in the middle

Tie a knot in the back of the bow and trim the tails.

To finish, fluff up and arrange the bow and hot glue it to the jar. Add a button to the center of the  bow using hot glue. Paint the honey dipper yellow and when dry, tie to one of the loose jute tails. Add Bzzz with stick on letters for the perfect farmhouse decor!
