How to Make Sewing Mason Jar Kits

I love Mason jar (Affiliate Link) kit ideas. This one is perfect to help keep your friends and family organized. They are ideal for college students, teenagers, single men, and women. Anyone who needs to mend their clothes quickly. It's so easy to put together too. Here is what I used to make these sewing mason jar (Affiliate Link) kits.

How to Make Sewing Mason Jar Kits

Supplies Used: Note: I added links from Amazon for your convenience.

  • Ball Jar Heritage Collection Pint Jars with Lids and Bands, Blue, Set of 6
  • Wrapables Red Obsession Japanese Washi Masking Tape, Set of 3
  • Quilting Squares or Scrap Fabric: Here is an example of one. 10" Square Summer Picnic Collector Series.
  • Fairfield Poly-Fil Premium Polyester Fiber, White, 1 Bag, 12-Ounce
  • Seven(7) sewing kits from the Dollar Tree store (affiliate). Here is an example of one from Amazon (Affiliate Link): Singer Sewing Kit in Storage Box
  • 4 Small zip ties: Here is a pack from Amazon (Affiliate Link): 100 White Nylon Cable Zip Ties Self Locking 2.5mm x 4."
  • Any style tabs (Affiliate Link)
  • Blue thin ribbon

Steps to make these DIY Sewing Mason Jar Kits:

First, I created the pin cushion on the top of the mason jar (Affiliate Link) lid. Then, I added a handful of filler and covered it with fabric, and added more as needed to make it full.  Now, I picked this picnic pattern since I was using Ball Vintage Style mason jars (Affiliate Link). I used small zip ties and placed them around the bunch of fabric on the bottom.

Cut fabric back

I then cut the fabric back so it isn't too bulky. The other part of the lid (shown below) holds the fabric and cushion in place.  Then, I went and added Washi Tape (Affiliate Link) around the end that matched.

Buy Dollar Store sewing kits

I went to the Dollar store, like Dollar Tree (affiliate), and bought seven sewing kits. I got extra so that I could add more to each sewing kit.

Create labels

Then, I added labels (Affiliate Link). I added the Washi Tape (Affiliate Link) in rows to match the patterns up and cut off the excess.  I left about 2 centimeters of tape, so I was able to fold it back.  I added a thick blue string.  Note I only had yellow tabs (Affiliate Link), but if you do this, you can buy white tabs (Affiliate Link) for a better look. Also, I also suggest adding a round sticker in the back to help keep the edges down.  Also, these round tags were from a discontinued Avery / Martha Stewart pack I bought at Staples a while ago.

Here is the final product! I made four full sewing kits and added them to the jars.

Tip: Storing them before giving them out

If you want to store these somewhere before giving them out, keep the box in which the Mason jars (Affiliate Link) came in.  It's handy to carry the finished sewing kits to hand out on the go.

    These are great! I think even I could do this project. The sewing kits you buy are tiny so this would be much harder to lose track of. Plus the extra space would allow storage of extra spools or thread or other items!

    I am a Pinterest and mason jar nut. You can find so many adorable ideas of things to make and do with a simple mason jar. This is a really cool idea. I'm not huge into sewing, but I do enough where this small sewing jar/pin cushion would be just right size.

    What a perfect gift for the college student or young adult in your life! When you leave home for the first time, you often don't realize how nice it was to have all the "supplies" for living already in the house. This is nice and small and still has what you need - perfect!

    Adorable idea! How fun. Mason jars have a lot of potential. I went to a restaurant recently where they served the iced tea in mason jars that you could take home with you if you wanted. It was a clever way to deliver our drinks with a great option for repurposing.
